SR233 Nautical Card with Two Versions :-)

Hi Stampers!!

I had a chance to play in my craft room this evening and decided to create a card for the Stampin’ Royalty SR233 Color Challenge.  I love the colors and thought that they would make a great nautical card so I pulled out the new set, Traveler.

I hope you have a chance to visit their site and check out the Design Team samples and other entries- great job by all!

 To create this card:

Version #1

Ink the script stamp from By The Tide using Night of Navy Classic Ink, stamp off and repeatedly stamp over the continents on a piece of I Am Me Designer Series Paper (DSP).  Trim the panel and add a strip of Night of Navy cardstock to the lower part of the DSP.

Punch out banners from the retired Fresh Prints DSP stack (along with a few from a piece of retired Night of Navy DSP) and adhere to the bottom of the panel.

Ink the splatter stamp from Gorgeous Grunge using Night of Navy Classic Ink, stamp off onto a piece of scrap paper and stamp onto the DSP.

Stamp the sentiments from Bravo using Coastal Cabana Classic Ink onto Whisper White cardstock, re-ink the same sentiments with Night of Navy Classic Ink and stamp over the initial stamping (creating a shadow effect).  

Stamp the splatter stamp from Gorgeous Grunge using Night of Navy Classic Ink, stamp off onto a piece of scrap paper and stamp over the sentiment area.

 

Add the vertical strip of Night of Navy and Real Red cardstock (I used scraps for this layer).  Adhere the map panel to the upper part of the Whisper White layer, trim and mount onto Coastal Cabana cardstock, trim and mount onto Night of Navy cardstock, trim and adhere to the Real Red card base.

 Ink the ship stamp from Traveler using Night of Navy Classic Ink and stamp onto Whisper White cardstock, add a few highlights using the Real Red Stampin’ Write marker and punch out using the 2 ½” XL Circle Punch.

Version#2- "Stepped Up" with brads :-)

Using the 2 ½” XL Circle Punch, punch out one circle from Night of Navy, Real Red and Whisper White cardstock, cut each circle in half and adhere in a rotating pattern around the ship image.

Mount the ship onto the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals®.

To “step” up the card, adhere the three retired Star brads to finish off the “stepped-up” version of the card :-)
