Happy Hump Day!!!
Playing along with one of my Favorite Sketch Challenge Blogs -- Freshly Made Sketches. When I saw the sketch I was going to do something with flowers and/or Spring themed, but than spied my World Map Background Stamp and the light bulb went on. I love the technique that the Stampin Up! Annual Catalog demonstrates on page 23; gently dragging the ink pad over cardstock to create a multi-colored background.
I hope you enjoy my Project!

ReplyDeleteMichelle, this is AMAZING!!!! The whole make-up of this card is just rilliant. I love the map stamp but moreover how you have processed the colours and also kept it as three panels. The ship is great and I love the use of the string and button too. Perfect!!! Laura xx
ReplyDeleteBeautifully crafted! This is a wonderful idea.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a fabulous design! I love how you've given the map color and this was a wonderful way to use the sketch. Really great card! Thanks for sharing with us at Freshly Made Sketches!
