Sketch & the Blues




I don't normally load a post with multiple cards...but they coordinate so well.


They're like,


squad goals. :)


 





Navy is IN, guys, believe it!


I'm seeing it everywhere, and I'm loving it.





My first card, based on a sketch~



(stamp:My Favorite Things Pretty Poppies  dies:My Favorite Things Die-namics Skyline Border/Sentiment Strips/Horizontal Stitched Strips   Other:We R Memory Keepers Crafter's Stapler)

The second, 

 (stamps:Papertrey Ink Super Stripes, Sweet Stamp Shop Fall Gratitude feathers,Technique Tuesday Ordinary Days)

 although not nautical...mimics the stripes, incorporates the navy blue...


not to mention, is very masculine (but hey, if you like feathers sister, more power to you!...*insert fist pump emoji*).

Hi Marlena...all 3 cards are fantastic. I especially like the "feather" card. You are correct, it absolutely feels nautical. Great Job!
