Beate's Weekend Sketch challenge has returned from holiday hiatus.
This is for a card shower for a marvelous woman who turns 95 this week. She is a retired geography professor, so it was suggested that her cards have a travel theme.
I stamped Stampin' Up's Old World Map, PSX Sailboats and Inkadinkado Birthday Wishes in Blue Iris ColorBox ink on a DP (Wordsworth I think) that is sort of a blue water-colored background with stitching. The caramel strip of DP is also by Wordsworth, so this card is also for the SCS Limited Supply challenge to make a card using no white or vanilla cardstock.
WOW! I love the BG, I couldn't believe it was a stamp! Looks like PP to me.
95 is awesome! Good for her!
