Seas The Day

 Good Morning! 


This card will be entered into the following Challenges:

Simon Says Monday, Things With Wings.
Can You Handle The Pressure?, Things With Wings.


I made another Lattice Split Front Card.
I think it made creating a Masculine card easier.....who knew?!?



 I hand cut my 'pier pilings' in 4 different sizes.
Using a corner rounder I rounded the top corners.
Then I sponged on some Timber Brown ink to distress the edges.
And then I ran each of them through my Big Shot using a Wood Embossing Folder.
Tied a wee bit of twine around each one and TA Da.
I will admit though, that they do kind of look like cigars too.....lol





 Gina K Designs Ocean Minded Kit, for the Sentiments.
White Embossing Powder.
Memory Box Lavender Branch and Beachfront Gulls dies.
Impression Obsession Grass die.
Foam Dots.




 Maybe I do like making Masculine cards  :)


Thanks for popping in!

Enjoy~~
