Ahoy There for #GDP086 Sketch Challenge

May 9, 2017 Filed Under: Gallery, Project Gallery

#GDP086, SEASDIE SHORE, AHOY THERE, STAMPIN' UP!

Seaside Shore and By the Shore DSP For #GDP086


Thank goodness the Seaside Shore is a carryover set!  I love the “Ahoy There” sentiment along with all the other stamps in the set. But, the By the Shore DSP I will really miss.  It is a perfectly put together set of designs with fabulous colors.  So, to show this DSP a little more love before retirement, I decided to feature it in my card for this week’s Global Design Project.  The challenge is a sketch project, which is easy and hard all at the same time.  Easy because you have a card design! Hard because you have to figure out what will fit into that layout.  The By the Shore DSP answered that challenge. Mine is not the only design with this fabulous sketch. Be sure to hop over to the Global Design page and see what everyone else is up to.  Click on the image below:

#GDP086, GLOBAL DESIGN PROJECT SKETCH CHALLENGE 086

As you can see in my card, I layered a stripe right across the front instead as a background layer. I just liked the look.  And one of the many wonderful things about the Global Design Challenge is that you can follow your own muse!  I used two variations of the starfish paper. And then took my favorite little banner, “Ahoy There” and fussy cut it to layer on the greeting tab.  Two fussy cut seashells completed the look. Night of Navy was the perfect pairing for a nautical look.

Love the By the shore DSP?  Don’t despair! While it is on the retired list, you can still buy it while supplies last or May 31st, whichever comes first!
