I was surfing a couple of challenge sites that I like to visit and found this great sketch on the Technostamper blog.  I had a couple of kits left over from one of my classes sitting on my work table and thought that the contents would work great with the sketch.  Unfortunately I am a little late for the challenge but here is the card anyway.

I embossed Whisper White card using the Woodgrain Embossing Folder.  I attached a narrow piece of Early Expresso card to the back of a piece of Crumb Cake DSP from the Neutrals Backgrounds Designers Series Paper Stack before attaching it to the bottom of the embossed Whisper White card.  I punched another narrow piece of Early Expresso card using the Scallop Edge Border Punch and attached it behind the top edge of the Whisper White card.   I had a piece of Early Expresso Baker’s Twine in the kit and decided to tie it around the Early Expresso card before attaching to scored and folded Crumb Cake card.  I stamped the ship from the The Open Sea stamp set onto Crumb Cake card using Early Expresso ink and punched it out using the 2-1/2″ Circle Punch.  The image panel is attached to the card front using dimensionals.

Inside I attached the same DSP/Early Expresso piece to the bottom of Whisper White card.  I stamped the “Happy Birthday” from the Sassy Salutations stamp set using Early Expresso ink.

What do you think?  I think it’s gorgeous!

This was fun to make, and I love that I used up a kit that I already had on hand.

Bye for now,

Kris
