Uncharted in Baja Breeze

Here's a simple card that I created for a card swap I was part of last month.  It uses a new set that Stampin' Up! introduced this year...Uncharted Territory.  The card base is Crumb Cake, and the image and sentiment are both stamped with Crumb Cake ink on Very Vanilla card stock.  The edges of this card stock have also been sponged.  Baja Blue is the matte color for the image, as well as for the paper ribbon I created with the new punch.

Thanks for stopping by for a visit today.  Make sure to pop over to the SUO Challenge site and post your projects.  The theme for this challenge is FALL and we'd love to have you play along!

Blessings to you!

Uncharted for PPA54

A funny thing happened as I was blog surfing today...I came across the challenge for Paper Pals Art - a masculine KISS card.  Why is this funny??  Because I had just created a KISS card sample that fit the theme perfectly. (It's a sample for a card designing class I will having in my home next week.)  Here it is:

I just received the Uncharted Territory stamp set and can already tell it will be a "go to" favorite.  This is my first card inked using Pacific Point and I think that will be another new favorite.  The top half of the card base is from the Blueberry Crisp designer paper pack.  Ribbon is Very Vanilla 1/4 inch grosgrain.

We've been busy sorting and rearranging around the house.  It's been a HUGE project and will be glad to have it done.  Definitely has cut into my "being creative" time, but need to do these things in the summer when school isn't in session.  When school begins again and my husband and I go back to work, we just don't have the time or energy to tackle the "big" jobs.

Thanks for stopping by for a visit.  Always appreciate it...feel free to leave a comment.

Blessings to you,
