Open Sea Birthday Card for Dad

Here's a card for my step-dad's birthday.  I saw a great card on Pinterest from Eldonna Epp.  Eldonna made her card using the Going Global stamp set from the Occasions catalog and I copied her card for my last card class in Vanilla, Early Espresso and Crumb Cake.  
My dad likes blue, so I made this card in blue for him.  He also likes the sea. This is not the most sea-like card, but I thought it was nice anyway.  
I love the Open Sea stamp set.  It's my go to set for guy cards or just general cards because it can be such a versatile set. Hope you enjoy!

Here's my dad's card in Island Indigo, Basic Black and Whisper White using the Open Sea stamp set (available in CLEAR or WOOD) and World Traveler Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.  Both of these items are on the retiring list and will be gone by the end of May.  I will miss them!!

Here's the card we made in class in using the Open Sea stamp set (available in CLEAR or WOOD) and World Traveler Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.  Be sure to order retiring products before they are gone.

Masculine Open Sea Card

Here's a fun card I made for my step-dad's birthday a few weeks ago.  I thought this was a great masculine card to share on Father's Day.  Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there.

My step-dad loves the sea, so I love using the Open Sea stamp set for his cards.  It's such a versatile set,  I love all the different cards I have made with this set over the last couple of years.  
To make the port window, I cut a circle in the Night of Navy card stock first, placed my stamped image on Very Vanilla behind that layer, then placed the Crumb Cake circle on the top with Dimensionals to pop it up.  
Sponge the circle with Crumb Cake ink before adhering to the card front, and stamp off some of the images first to give them a softer look behind the ship.
