Hi again! Chasing a deadline or two…
Addicted to CAS (#308) for a clean and simple card featuring Travel.
Choosing CAS Colours & Sketches (#586) for the Palette and Sunday Stamps (#386) for the Sketch.
Adding in Just Us Girls (#825) to use Stencils and going Masculine for Krafty Chicks (#822) and TGIF (#579).
Here is the result:
Steps:
- Card Base: (8½” x 5½” scored at 4¼”) Basic White cardstock.
- Stenciled Panels: (2¾” x 4¼”) Basic White cardstock.
- Using Sponge Daubers and the Mini Square Stencil from the retired Foursquare Decorative Masks Set, the pattern was added with Gray Granite and Balmy Blue inks.
- The Panels were trimmed to (2⅜” x 3⅞).
- On the Gray Granite Panel, the Lighthouse image from the retired Sailing Home stamp set was stamped with Night of Navy ink.
- On the Balmy Blue Panel, the larger Sailboat and Birds images, from the same stamp set, were also stamped with Night of Navy ink.
- Sentiment Flag: Basic White cardstock scrap.
- The sentiment, Wishing you the best, from the Friendly Foliage stamp set, an On-Line Exclusive product, was stamped with Night of Navy ink and trimmed to (2¼” x ¾”) and hand-notched with Detail Scissors and then edged with Night of Navy ink applied with a Sponge Dauber.
All elements were adhered to the card base to resemble the sketch. The Sentiment Flag was popped up with Dimensionals.
A nice clean and simple Retirement, Birthday or Father’s Day card.
Thanks for spending some more of your time with me today. Cheers, Jolanda!

I feel like I am always chasing deadlines for card challenges. Your nautical card suits these colors perfectly. I like your technique of the sketches on the patterns, I’ll have to give that a try. Thanks for sharing your card with us at CAS Colours and Sketches.
