Yesterday I shared a shaker card made by my friend Gail using the Detailed Santa Thinlits Dies You can view that post HERE and I promised to share another card using the same thinlits die but in an unusual way.  Check it out!  Gail was making waves with the Detailed Santa Thinlits Dies.  The waves that the sail boat are sailing on is actually Santa’s beard!

Today’s Color Palette

Ready, Set, Cut

Whisper White:  5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″

scrap for boat

Serene Scenery DSP: (Cut 2) for waves and frame

Pacific Point:  Scrap for the die cut word

Daffodil Delight: Scrap for sun

I am so madly in love with the rolling waves in this card.  They were cut from the Serene Scenery DSP and layered on another piece of the same print for the background.  This layer was attached to the card base.  The sails of the boat were stamped and sponged around the edges for a weathered look and fussy cut out.  The sun comes from the Swirly Scribbles Thinlits and the die cut sentiment  is cut from Sunshine Wishes Thinlits and the stamped sentiment comes from the coordinating Sunshine Sayings stamp set.  Let your creativity go and see what you can create with the Detailed Santa Thinlits.  I’ve got one more creative idea with the Detailed Santa Thinlits which I’ll show you tomorrow.
