Missing you

#626-2020-02.

This one is a 5x7 inch card.

I used oil pastels to color the sky, which didn't quite turn out the way I wanted it to. But that's ok.

After stamping on the sailboat with a light blue ink from StudioG, I used a red and light pale pink copic marker to color it in.

For the ocean, I put some ink on a clear block that's used for clear stamps and then I used a small paint brush to brush on the blue for the water. 

Then I stamped on the birds, added the ribbon, pearls, and small anchors and sentiment to complete my card.

You're my anchor

#622-2020-02.

This layout design is from this week's freshly made sketches challenge.

The supplies I used are :

White cardstock,

Anchor embossing folder,

Anchor stamp and cut,

Ribbon messages die,

Scalloped heart,

Heart gems.

I don't have any sentiment stamps for an anchor sentiment ,so I had to write it on the ribbon die myself. I struggled for over an hour trying to put some hemp cord around the scalloped heart and anchor to make it look like a rope around the heart and anchor, but I couldn't seem to get it to look the way I wanted it to, so I left it off and just went with a piece of hemp on the top of the anchor instead.

Thinking of you

#616-2020-01.

For this week's freshly made sketches challenge, I made this floral thinking of you card. 

As you can see, the printed paper that I used is from a floral paper pad, which I purchased as a clearance item from our local craft store.

As a border, I just used a pastel pink cardstock.

The sentiment is from some clear stamp sentiments that I got as a free gift from scrapbooking.com.
