Back to blogland!

Whew!  It's been a few hectic weeks, but I'm back from end-of-school-year activities and another fun-filled scrap weekend with my girlfriends.  I was SO inspired by Kathryn's 6x6 OWH tutorial this week and I made seven cards from template 1!  Here's a sample of some of them:
 
What a timesaver this was for me!  I'm so grateful that she put the time into figuring out the measurements and sketches. 
 
The challenge for the Midweek throwdown is water.  I bought some Nautical digistamps from Birdie Brown and thought they might go with this theme.  I used the sailboat in one of my cards above and used the portly (shall we say?) sailor for this card:
The sentiment is also from Birdie.  The background paper is swirly like water, so that's how I'm claiming this as a water card!  Isn't that sailor sooo cute??  Love him.
 
That's it for me today - thanks for stopping by!

  1. All three cards are fantastic! I love Torico's images too! My card for the throwdown featured the little sailboat from this set. Mo
