Make It Monday

This week's Make It Monday Challenge was to make a card that has a sentiment stamped on some vellum. I needed to make a birthday card for tonight and this is what I came up with:









Pretty much all supplies are from PTI, except for the toothpick center. I cut off the top of a fancy fancy pin and glued this to the top of the toothpick; the ribbed red paper is from my LSS. I used Star Prints and Dot Spot along with Aqua Mist and Blueberry Sky papers. The vellum is cream tinted. The inks are Snow White and Versa Mark. I also used the cloud dies with vintage cream felt. :)

Have a happy Monday!

Your boat is super cute, especially with the twine and gem-topped "mast"! Great idea to use the vellum for the sails.

Thanks for your comment on my blog! I've been meaning to send you a message to say hello from Methuen. I was excited to see that you are nearby. I haven't met any crafters since moving here, so it's good to know I'm not alone!

ADORABLE!!! I am in love with how cute this is :) And what a neat way to use the velum instead of a plain old strip!
