Hello! I hope you all had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend here in the USA. It started out cold and with some snow here in NH, but yesterday it warmed up and by the end of the week, the HEAT will be on! No.... I am not looking forward to that! My craft room gets really humid and hot!
I was able to make a card this weekend. I didn't really have anything in mind for it until I decided on the color challenge from The Play Date Cafe-So Very Nauti{cool}: Navy, School Bus, Grass... and then this was born:
The "photo" frame piece was a scrap on my desk. I was going to use a square and this was the left over... but at the end, I decided to use this piece and go a different directions with my card... I really like how this turned out...
Recipe: The Open Sea (SU!), Grunge Me (PTI), and Timeless Classic (Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps) stamp sets... So Saffron, Night of Navy (SU!), White (Georgia Pacific) card stock... So Saffron, Night of Navy, Wild Wasabi ink (SU!)... square die (Spellbinders), Jewelry Tag punch (SU!), Sentiment Flag die (Lil' Inker Designs)... thread, rhinestones... label maker, mini staples...
Thanks for stopping by,
Monika
Such a fabulous, guy card! I'm in love with those detailed images, and all the textures here are simply divine!
