Wetlands Stampin' Up! Cards

                      

These are two of the cards that we are doing tonight at class.  This is the first time I have used the burlap ribbon.  It is much thicker than I realized.  The multipurpose glue seems to hold it well.   The background was made using versamark.

                                     

Wetlands card

Featuring the Wetlands stamp set in class tomorrow.  This is one of the cards we will be making.  Usually we are using several layers of paper but this card only uses one-half sheet of Whisper White card stock.

Thie inks are Sahara Sand, Soft Sky, Island Indigo and Wild Wasabi.  The colors were applied using sponge daubers.  Fun!

The Open Sea Stampin' Up Card

This is truly one of my favorite stamp sets.  I just love it.  We will be doing this card (and 2 others) in class tomorrow night.  The dry embossing technique was used to make the sails poof out!  I cased the card from one I saw done by Linda Heller.  Linda's had a flap on the front which held a gift card.  Hope you enjoy this version.
