Welcome to this month’s blog hop with
Di's Country Inkers!
Our theme for this
blog hop is Red, White & Blue…for the 4th of July, of
course! Wasn’t Crystal’s project awesome?!
Here is my red, white, and blue card (I
really like the swirly bird diecuts and stamps – so versatile and fun!)
The sailboat and lighthouse were fussy cut and adhered with pop-up dimensionals. When I was taking the photos of my card, I thought all the lines reminded me of Vincent Van Gogh's picture, Starry Night. Hope it is okay to show a little picture of that painting, but I didn't even think about it until I was taking pictures - honest!
My sister in Mass. is getting married later this month by Scituate Lighthouse and I am flying out to the wedding. She and her fiancee enjoy visiting various lighthouses and the maritime/nautical paraphernalia, so I thought a red, white, blue card for their wedding with the lighthouse stamp from the set From Land and Sea would be perfect!
Here are the other Stampin' Up products I used:
- Dapper Denim ink and cardstock,
- Cherry Cobbler ink and cardstock,
- Serene Scenery 6 x 6 designer series paper stack,
- Floral Phrases stamp set (wedding greeting),
- Swirly Bird stamp set (boat and sunset),
- Swirly Scribbles diecut (ocean waves),
- Cherry Cobble baker's twine (bow),
- Gold metallic twine trim, and
- Clear and gold wink of stella to add glimmer.
Here are a few more pictures of the card so you can see the "glimmer:"
