Round 2 - Taylored Expressions Last Card Standing

~

~

The Round 2 theme is FRIENDSHIP.

My daughter is my best friend and we share an intense love of the ocean and all things beach-related.  (No surprise to anyone who's been to my blog before!)  So it was easy for me to choose The Places You'll Go stamp set to use for my card.

The image is stamped on patterned paper from the 6x6 Bundle Collection: Fresh from Authentique, and colored with Copic markers.  I used a Labels Eighteen die to cut the frame in another piece of patterned paper and to also cut the red frame (from more Fresh paper).  The blue patterned layer is stitched around the edges and popped up on foam mounting tape.

I stamped the image onto white cardstock and cut it using a Big Scallop Oval die.  I also sponged some Soft Sky ink onto it before removing the die.  It's popped up on foam mounting tape too.

Finally I tied on some Crumb Cake ribbon and topped it with a vintage button and a sailor's knot tied with PTI button twine.

That's it!

Wish me luck in making it through to the next round!!  (And thanks!!)  You can see all the entries for this round HERE.

This is so cute. I love how so many of your cards gravitate toward the beach. One would almost think you love it! Good luck!
