Come Sail Away with the Paper Players

Happy Sunday and welcome to a new Paper Players challenge!  This week's challenge is brought to you by Laurie:

At first I was planning to bust out The Open Sea for this challenge since it's got the old sailing vessel and other nautical images, but then I remembered that I also have Beware Pirates so pirate ship it is!

I bought the Waves of the Ocean DSP when it was on special and I hadn't cut into it before, but this seemed like the perfect opportunity to start using it!  I inked up the stamp with Versamark and then Night of Navy ink, stamped it directly on the patterned paper, and then heat embossed with clear embossing powder.  Since I popped it up on Dimensionals, I die cut another of the Stylish Shapes from white cardstock to make it a bit more sturdy.  Some matte dots to accent and that's it!

Hope you'll have fun with this challenge too.  Later this week I'll share the first card I made for this challenge; I thought it wasn't quite CAS enough so I made this one.  Ya know what, that happens to be pretty frequently with CAS challenges, it's like I have to do one more complicated card and then I can do something that's more CAS.  Guess that's just how my brain works!  Don't forget to upload your nautical card at the Paper Players challenge blog.
