Before I tell you about todays card, I just wanted to say a big hello & welcome to all those lovely people who have recently joined as followers - I love sharing this craft and it is a privilege to have you along for the adventure :)
This card was inspired by this fortnightly photo from Paper Smooches Sparks Challenge. I love the natural textures and colours, along with the nautical and time theme - perfect for a little boys card. I created the waves by using the negative pieces created when I used an EK Success Scalloped Edge punch - you can achieve a similar effect with any scalloped edge - just turn the negative punch out up-side-down and you have an instant wave! The clouds are from the gorgeous new Paper Smooches Whimsical, and the time-related sentiment is stamped using Paper Smooches Alphadots. For a change, I tried stamping with Tim Holtz Distress Ink Faded Jeans to keep with the stonewashed feel. Papers are a combination of MME On The Bright Side - Two, Authentic Gathering, and the pirate ship and treasure island are cut of from Grace Taylors Playtime. Finally, I mounted the scene on white cardstock to reflect the white edging around the clock.
Once again, thanks for joining me on this adventure!
