Welcome back. This is the latest set of cards I've made using the Message in a Bottle set from Stampin' Up!

For the first card I used the bottle filler stamp as a background stamp. I just love it. Not much colour but overall effective. I love the subtle hint on Real Red card stock to frame it all.

For this next card I put the octopus in the jar and added some hearts to match the sentiment. Very cute and I just love the pun. I fussy cut the bottle a used dimensionals to raise it as I didn't use a mat on this card.

I think this is my favourite card out of them all. I love the watercolour effect. The way the colours mesh together. I used Fresh Fig and Bermuda Bay ink for the background.

I used the marbled background stamp from Stampin' Up! to create the background on this card. My card was a little bigger than the stamp so I just centered it to create a boarder at the top and bottom. Again another pun (ny) sentiment to match the stamp. Just love that.

And finally the whale. I tried to use the whole stamp set as I went on making these cards to showcase its versatility. I used the new Copper Trim as a background behind the bottle. I love that you can stretch it out and make what looks like a net. Very cool.

Hi all, Thanks for stopping by. I had my dad pass away on fathers day so I haven't been posting. I have a couple of things to share and hopefully get back to regular blog posts really soon.

This first card was using Crumb Cake card stock. I just love this colour. I used the small square thinlit from the stitched thinlits die set. I just love the texture the faux stitching makes and how it looks on the card. I used snippits of the stamps from the Country Livin stamp set from Stampin' Up!. Trying to go with a masculine look for the month of September to celebrate Fathers day.

With this next card I again used Crumb Cake card stock. I used the full truck from the Country Livin stamp set from Stampin' Up! and watercoloured the grass and sky to create a scene. Again another masculine card for Fathers day. I love how it turned out.

I hope you enjoyed these cards as I had a ball making them. Check back later for more crafty fun. Happy Crafting!
