Sailing home

Hello,
Today I am sharing my latest post.  This card started as a challenge between fellow demonstrators for a starburst/ sunburst card. I chose to use the sailing home set and used the papers from world of good and the new in colours, cinnamon cider, bumblebee and misty moonlight. The reason for using this stamp set and colours was that I wanted a more masculine style thinking of you card to send to a friend,
I opted to spread my rays out to show the cinnamon cider card underneath.
I am pleased with how the card looked at the end.

Please take a look a https://craftyhunnypots.blogspot.com/ as Natalie set the challenge and did a beautiful card using the peony suite.
Until next time hugs and blessings x

World of good suite

Hello and welcome to another blog post.
Today I am taking part in a blog challenge with the paper players.  The challenge is the PP497 sketch challenge. I have opted to use the world of good suite for this card.
I have used crumb cake cardstock as my base care, layered with dsp from this suite, I have also used the new old world paper embossing folder which gives the cinnamon cider cardstock a rumpled look. The dies were used for the topper, globe and scroll, The sentiment is from the Beautiful world stamp set.
I often struggle to find ideas for a more masculine style card but this set lends itself to that. It is also good for a traveller or to use for scrapbooking.
Thank you for taking a look. Please leave me a comment it really does make a difference.
hugs and blessings 
Ruth
