Sailing

Kits seem to be all the rage today. Is it easy, convenient, and affordable? Possibly, but I'm still leaning toward putting my own spin on everything. What do you think? 

Sailing

Stamps:

   None

Paper:

   Lost Lagoon A-2

   Basic Black 5-3/8 x 4-1/8

   Going Places DSP 5-1/4 x 4

   Basic White 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:

   None

Technique:

   CAS

Accessories:

   Something for Everything Ephemera Pack

   Saying Something Ephemera Pack

   Labels & Layers Ephemera Pack

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

First, I chose the pieces I wanted to use for my card from the various Ephemera Packs. I decided that the sailboat went nicely with "smooth sailing & sunny skies." I also needed to make a masculine birthday card. So, I chose a Happy Birthday.

I then found this sheet of designer paper where the lines reminded me of the water movement in an ocean. So, I arranged the pieces on the panel and attached them, using dimensionals and adhesive.

Next, I adhered the panel to a Basic Black matte and then added it to a Lost Lagoon card front.

Lastly, I adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

I made the same card, using a card base from the Calming Creek Cards & Envelopes.

Sailing Too

What do you think? I like my added layers. I'm going to create a few more before I decide, but I guess my creativity bug keeps screaming for uniqueness.
