Carpe Diem

I just love these Altenew rowboat dies and saw that Sunday Stamps SSC337 In The Garden had these gorgeous colors this week, so I made this card for it taking inspiration from the five colors. Pretty sure these are a girls group of rowboat owners. LOL.









Products I used:

Altenew: Wooden Rowboat die set, Boat Adventures stamp set

My Favorite Things: Snow Swirls cover die

Ranger: Distress ink

Twine

Vellum

GinaK: White Fine Detail embossing powder


I just love the colors of this challenge. It was fun to find these colors in my stash and piece these rowboats together. I wanted to add a little something to them and thought of rope. It feels like summer to me and a place we go for a casual lunch and to hang by the water. I fussy cut the sentiment after heat embossing it. I am getting braver to heat emboss on vellum too, after all these years. I just needed to remember the anti-stick powder!

See you back here soon!
