OH SHIP!

This has to be one of my favorite stamp sets by Simon Says Stamp it's so great for masculine cards and who doesn't love a god nautical theme that's also a little naughty lol. I wanted to create a simple one layer card that didn't have to much embellishment going on but was still fun :)

Enjoy!!!!

I started by masking off a skinny rectangle in the middle of the card base (i could have made one with some rectangle dies and card stock but i wanted the card to be all ink). I adjusted the masking after inking the rectangle to cover it up and stamp the background with some Schoolhouse red ink from Simon Says stamp, its one of my favorite reds to use. I stamped my greeting each line in a different color, and last but not least the awesome pirate ship to finish it off.



I'm also entering this card in the one layer challenge over at A Blog Named Hero, Everyone go check it out!

  1. As a Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow fan I had to come ck out your card. I like how this looks like more than one layer but is one layer with the ink masking.
