Sailboat

A Beachy Thank You Card

| ullycatdesigns

This card was made for Craft Roulette #301 whose parameters were: an appreciation card, apple farm colors, silhouette element and old [craft] product. I used Waffle Flower Beach Days dies, stencils and stamps along with a Hero Arts sentiment stamp to create this card.

Watch the process video below to learn how this card was made.

Cardbase: I used a purchased American size A2 (4 1/4×5 1/2-inches) kraft cardbase and matching envelope.

Postage Stamps: Using the stamps and stencils from the Waffle Flower Beach Days collection along with their Postage Collage die and stamp set, I created the beached themed postage collage seen in the video above. (See below Materials Used for all the ink colors used.)

Sentiments: “Thank you for your kindness” is from the Hero Arts Kindness stamp set.

Envelope: The panel card fits into an A2 (4 1/4×5 1/2-inches) size envelope with the back flap stamped with an anchor seal “I hope you have the best day” in black.

Sailboat Pop-Up Card

| ullycatdesigns

It’s Sneak Peek Week for Karen Burniston’s June 2024 release of new dies and clear stamps. For this card of encouragement, I used several of the new sets including: Set Sail Borders, Sailboat Add-Ons, Boat Pop-Up and Just A Note Lorna Add-Ons die sets and the Sail Away clear stamp set. The new release will be available on July 1, 2024.

Watch the YouTube video below to learn how the card was made.

Sailboat Pop-Up: This pop-up is made with two die sets – the base is the Boat Pop-Up and the sails, pendant, railing, life preservers and anchor are all in the Sailboat Add-Ons set.

Cardbase: The card base is made up of two rectangles On 4 x8 1/2-inches and the other 4 x 8 3/4-inches. The longer piece is scored at 8 1/2-inches for the tab to glue to back of the other piece. The card front scene is made from waving water paper brushed with glitter gloss and Distress Oxide ink and a large blending brush. The birds are hand-drawn. The porpoise is from the Set Sail Borders die set. On the card back is a border of shells from the Set Sail Borders die set and colored with alcohol markers.

Sentiments: The card front “waving hello” is die-cut letters from the Mini Alphabet and the “hello” is from the Just A Note Lorna Add-Ons. The stamped sentiments inside the card are from the Sail Away stamp set. A white label inside is for a personal message and was cut from the Labels – Crosshatch die set.

Envelope:  The card fits into a #10 business envelope stamped with “Always take the scenic route” from the Sail Away stamp set.
