High Seas

I've been mostly making cards with soon-to-retire stamp sets, but for today I pulled out some stamps that aren't on the retiring list and I made a MAN card!

I used the sketch from Freshly Made:

And I finally played along in a Stampin' Celebration challenge!

What's funny is I looked at the picture last week and wrote down a few key words (mostly colors and "nautical"), so yay me for putting both stripes and an anchor on my card.  And a map too I suppose, there's a globe on the inspiration pic too :)  I was going to put some kind of sentiment or something on the front, but then I just did the three Candy Dots instead.

That's it for me today, I'm leaving in a bit for a picnic lunch with some friends to take advantage of today's gorgeous weather.  Cheers, peeps!
