One of my friends is moving to Germany next month, and she asked if I could make some "we're moving" cards for her. That "daring adventure" quote is Sarah all over (and, in fact, this is the whole reason why I bought Daring Adventure when it hit the clearance rack, I just didn't get to make her a sample until now), so I hope she likes this.
I think I'm in love with the color combination of Pistachio Pudding, Pool Party, and Island Indigo. The mappy background has a bit of Pistachio Pudding and Pool Party on it--I scribbled on my largest acrylic block, misted, and stamped it on the white cardstock to give a soft watercolor background. After it dried, I stamped the map on top in Island Indigo...I kinda wish the watercolor part was a leetle bit stronger but what can ya do.
Do you like the layout? I do. It's a slightly tweaked version of this week's Mojo Monday sketch:
And since both Daring Adventure and World Map are new additions to my collection, I think this counts for the SUO Challenge to use new toys.
