Today's card will get you in the mood for beach weather too! It features the High Tide stamp set from the Occasions Catalogue...
I wanted to come up with a masculine design for my upcoming card buffet and this stamp set fit the bill perfectly (although I'd be happy to recieve this beachy card too!). I began with a Chocolate Chip card stock base and layered it with a piece of Tasty Treats Specialty DSP. I love stripes for a nautical feel. The beach scene is created using various images from the High Tide stamp set. I stamped the lighthouse using Cherry Cobbler and Chocolate Chip ink. The sand is stamped in Sahara Sand, the water in Dapper Denim and the birds in Chocolate Chip. I stamped the sentiment in Chocolate Chip ink as well and die-cut it using the Stitched Shapes framelits. I matted both stamped panels using Dapper Denim card stock.
I added some Cherry Cobbler Baker's twine and an Urban Underground star embellishment, which I thought worked perfectly for a nautical theme.
On the inside I added a Whisper White panel on which I created another seaside theme. The sentiment is from the Guy Greetings stamp set. I have to admit I like the inside of this one almost as much as I like the front! Can you believe this is the first time I inked up my High Tide stamp set?? It most certainly won't be the last...I am loving it!
Have a fabulous weekend...I have a visit with my BFF planned...can't wait!!
