Welcome to Mark's Finest Papers a Heinrich Company's
June Blog Hop!
Here we are -- the last day of this month's Blog Hop. I hope you have enjoyed what you have seen this week. Today's set, Silly Shells, has several shell images, a resting sailboat and some clever sentiments. My first card is another CAS one, using one of the shell images and one of the sentiments.
My second card utilizes a photo I printed from the internet. It is actually a free wallpaper download from Walt Disney World. In addition to the sailboat and sentiment from Silly Shells, I stamped some birds from another MFP set, Scenic Selections. This is one of the nice things I like about these MFP sets -- they are interchangeable. I added a little bit of piercing, using a plastic canvas round template.
I hope you have gotten lots of ideas this week. Be sure to check out the rest of the team members' blogs and comment for your chance to win a free stamp set.

Great cards love the first one and the framed look! Great coloring on the other card!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards Lois! I love how you printed out some wall paper to use as a backdrop for the sailboat!
ReplyDeleteLike both cards - so different but both great
ReplyDeletewow! cardsAre very beautiful
ReplyDeleteLois, I LOVE that white card. The shells are popping out of that framing. And, the second with the downloaded wallpaper is beautiful. I really like how you sponged around the boat.
ReplyDeleteAwesome cards; love the CAS 1st card and the photo background on the second. Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteGreat idea about printing a background image for your card...thanks for sharing...
ReplyDeleteGorgeous CAS card and the second one...how cool to use a photo. Your red boat is stunning.
ReplyDeleteBoth cards are quite wonderful. They fit the images so well. And don't we all need to relax! kk
ReplyDeleteLike the Clean & Simple (CAS) feel with the embossed inner border framing. Like the background image and the way the sailboat pops by cutting it with a circle nestie and layering. I like all things sea shell. Have a sea shell collection in my master bathroom. Wallpaper theme of master bathroom is beach/sand castles/sea shells.
