CCC #152 and The Challenge

Happy Tuesday and time for a new Cue Card at CASology!

This week's cue word is:

I pulled out an older and one of my favourite Waltzingmouse stamps sets, Ocean Bound. I stamped, coloured and fussy cut the life preserver and popped it up with foam tape and put it on a strip of kraft and navy.

Have a look at what the rest of the Design Team has created to inspire you...

I am also submitting this card to The Challenge, this week their theme is Nautical as well.

...and the Simon Says Wednesday Challenge - Use a favorite

The Card Concept Challenge #12 - Use a Nautical Theme

Time for a new challenge at The Card Concept!

Perfect how this challenge lined up for Father's Day!

Any reason to use my Waltzingmouse stamps is a good reason.  I used Ocean Bound and Man of the Hour to create a card for my Dad. My Dad loves anything to do with boating or water.  I picked up the colours from the inspiration photo with navy and some silver embossing and then a bit of red just because.  We hope that you join us for this challenge, looking forward to seeing what inspires you.

Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge - Feeling Nautical

It's finally here, opening day at the Curtain Call inspiration Challenge and time for the first challenge.

Are you feeling a bit nautical?

Verve Stamps not only provided the crew with stamps on dies for this challenge but they are also the sponsor! So the card that takes the lead in this first challenge will also get their own Strong Anchor stamp set and coordinating Nautical Die Set  dies!

Here is my card inspired by our first photo using these fabulous stamps and dies!

I learned something new through this, I learned how to tie a figure eight knot!

Edit: I am also submitting this cad to the current Simon Says By the Sea Challenge, the challenge was posted after I posted this card, so I am just entering to play along. It wouldn't be eligible for the GC.
