Setting Sail...

I really meant to post this

earlier this week

but time and life got away from me.

I spent last evening helping a friend

make Charlie Brown Christmas themed decorations.

We didn't get finished

so Sunday will have take two on that project.

They will be ADORABLE so stay tuned!

Didn't know designing dog houses was in my repertoire

but --it is!

 

Ok.

Setting Sail.

My "nephew's" birthday is coming up

and being as he is in the Navy

I broke out my Close to My Heart Tommy stash

and this is what I came up with...

I used a CTMH stamp set for the flags

and stamped and hand cut each of the letters to make the

"happy" banners

which I attached to red ribbon

pop-dotted of course!

The inside has a moving mechanism

in that circle area

I found this design on

Dawns Stamping Studio blog

for a Halloween card she designed.

As you open the card, those two flagged panels inside the circle

pull back to reveal

in this card

the "super" star stamped underneath.

At the bottom I added another panel of dp

and fussy cut the Happy Birthday and

yes, pop-dotted it, too.

I will tuck some cash inside and it's good to go.

Next up will be my goddaughter's belated birthday card

and, I gotta say, it GLOWS.

 

Until next time

happy stamping and scrapping!

Blessings,
