The Open Sea Waterfall Card



My card today is a fun, interactive card that I had never created before. I believe it has been around for at least 7 or 8 years. Gads! I need to get with it and get out of my comfort zone...

Linda over at stampingschool.com encouraged us to try one if we hadn't before. With trepidation,I took her challenge, and created this one.

Although, it took me more time to choose the stamps and colors then actually putting this card together! 

Here is a closer look at the layers:







 Linda had covered her brads with 1" circles, but since I had earmarked this card for a family members birthday, adding a 2"x4" strip across the back , and only adding sticky strip along the short sides and the bottom, I'm able to slip a check at the back.

That's about it for Monday. I hope you create this type of card, if you haven't already. If you haven't, get out your paper and stamps, and try one! 

Can you sense I'm feeling empowered! ;}

What a fun card this would be to send to the little people in your life.  I'm planning to.

Stay CRAFTY!
