Brenda has chosen the theme of 'Masculine’ for this week's Allsorts Challenge, but as usual there is always the option of Anything Goes. I made a masculine Bay Window birthday card for my DT card.
A friend gave me a part used Carta Bella 'Bon Voyage' 6 x 6 paper pad. She is a scrapbooker rather than a card maker and didn't think she's find a use for these papers. Rather than her binning them, I took them off her hands. đŸ˜€ There are a few other pages left, which I'm sure I'll be able to use to make a few cards. The yacht was die cut with Memory Box 'Marina Sailboats' dies and layered on Memory Box 'Stitched Circle Layers' die cuts. The sentiment is a stamp from the Stampin' Up 'Best Year' set, stamped with Versafine Clair 'Tulip Red'.
Prizes from Craft Stash, Highlight Crafts and AALL and Create. Please hop over to the Allsorts Challenge blog to see the wonderful creations the DT have made.
I am joining in the following challenges:
The papers you've used are just right for a masculine card and this nautical one does the trick. Certainly would have been a shame to bin any papers and kind of your friend to pass them on to you.
ReplyDeleteNow I know the name of that shape which I have actually made once or twice! Loving the nautical theme running through.
