Red White and Blue

Welcome to the middle of the week!

Each month, my stamp club makes cards according to a theme. For this month, it is red white and blue OR patriotic. Obviously, my card is not a patriotic card but I did accomplish the Red white and blue!

I used the set from Stampin' Up! s summer mini.

It is called The Open Sea (123032).

I love to distress and antique my cards. I am not sure if it will show up or not, but I crumbled the background and then flattened it back out and rubbed crumb cake ink on it to make it look weathered and aged.

I hope you enjoy looking at my creations as much as I enjoy making them!

Until next time,

GO GET YOUR FINGERS INKY!

Thanks for looking at my blog... sorry it has been so long since my last post. I have been stamping but for some reason have not been on top of blogging the items I have stamped.
Lets hope this is a turning point!
Until next time,

I'm SO sorry!

Oh my goodness! I can not believe it has been so long since my last blog post!
How shameful! It's not that I haven't been stamping cause I surely have.
Over the next few days, I will try to update my blog and add some new projects for you to enjoy!
So be watching for them soon!
until then,
GO GET YOUR FINGERS INKY!
