Beached Boat with SAND!

Here's another card featuring the Beached Boat..... went back to my normal size.... but LOOK AT THAT SAND - is that the coolest or what? I got this stuff at the Craft super show, MuddPuddles it's this super cool sand stuff (not really sand) but it's wet mixed in some kind of glue and you slather it on... doesn't crack off when dry!!

Here's a close up of the sand.... This stuff is soo cool, they have a bunch of colors and of course I had to get a few :)

Magical Monday - Introducing Beached Boat

Good Morning Magic Makers! This week's Free Limited Edition digital stamp is Beached Boat by Nina May at There's Magic in the Air

Today's Challenge is to make a GateFold card...... I have to admit, I mostly stick to the basic A2 ( 5.5x4.25") size card, so this is my first attempt at this style. It was definately a challenge for me. Nina has found a great link to some Gatefold card instructions and I did basically follow that, except for the size..... I'd printed this out in a larger size than I normally would work with, (5" x3.5") but I didn't like my coloring "skills" on the smaller one haha
Anyway this card is 6" x 5.5" and I scored at 3.5" on the one side and 2.5" on the other


here's the card half open, so you can see how the gatefold opens and the image panel tucks behind the popped up sentiment to keep it closed


and here's the inside... I've left the open space for writing, or stamping a sentiment before I send it out. and I inked the edges and stamped the bird on the poles from My MFT By the Seashore set


So get on over to There's Magic in the Air and get your copy... they are FREE for a limited time only.... and there's the gatefold card challenge with a random prize drawing for participating as well!
