Peaceful and relaxed. That’s how I feel when I see this card. The only thing that your eye is drawn to in this card is the focal point image. The blues of the ocean. The rising/setting sun and the boats slipping along in the breeze. Peaceful.
Sometimes clean and simple is the way to go with a card. I’m finding my card making style heading more and more in that direction. Don’t get me wrong. I still like my layers and my ribbons and my die-cuts but you certainly can’t go wrong with clean and simple.
You could use this card for many occasions and it does have a masculine touch with the sailboats. With the feelings of peace and relaxation I think it would make a nice sympathy or get well card. What occasion would you use this card for?
I love the Lilypad Lake stamp set and the coordinating Lakeside framelits. This bundle can be used for any type of card but I always feel calm and relaxed when I see it. The sentiments in the stamp set evoke those feelings perfectly. You can check out the bundle on page 133 of Stampin’ Up!’s new Annual Catalog.
I hope you have a calm and relaxing day! Take care and Happy Stamping!
