Not All Who Wonder Are Lost

Happy Saturday Fellow Crafters and Scrappers,

I had an opportunity to play in my craft room this morning while my men, my hubby and our two sons, were visiting Lowe's for their weekend Little Builder's workshop. I made this Nautical themed card for both Always Playing With Paper, as well as CAS-ology's Nautical themed challenges.



I pulled out a few of my Taylored Expressions and Simon Says Stamp, dies and stamps to create this card. The sentiment, which I love, is from Citrus Twist. The color for the waves were created using the "smooshing technique." A first for me. I will have to practice a little more before I feel comfortable with this technique, but it is also a good thing to try something new =) 


Thank you for stopping by this weekend for a little creative inspiration. See you again soon. 

Smiles,


Keia
