Scrappy Sailing Home


Today I'm participating in Kylie Bertucci's International Blog Highlights blog hop.  The theme for the cards is "thank you".  I hope you'll visit the various artists' blogs to see what they have created, and you get to vote for your favorites.  Voting takes place here.

For this card, I was playing with the Scrappy Strip technique, and had an idea to create a scene.  Take a look:


Can you see the sand, water and sky?

To make a card using this technique, cut strips of cardstock in varying colors (Soft Suede, Sahara Sand, Crumb Cake, Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay, Pacific Point, Blueberry Bushel, Night of Navy, Balmy Blue, Pool Party and Seaside Spray).  Don't make the cuts "straight"; angle them so you are making long triangles.  Then layer them on a piece of Whisper White cardstock, leaving a tiny strip of white showing between each piece.


Using Sailing Home, I stamped the boat and lighthouse, colored them with Stampin' Blends and cut them out with the Smooth Sailing dies.


Please visit the rest of the blogs, and don't forget to vote for your favorites!  The top 10 winners get to participate in another hop at the end of the month.  I'd love to be a part of it!  😁
