Sailing The Seas Birthday Card...4 Of 130...





Another birthday card for my sister...
This card almost made me cry...
I took two days, 
and I dismantled it 8 times...

Each time I completed it,
I would take a step back,
and it just didn't look right.

So I would take it apart and 
try it again...

At the 8 try,
I was happy.

To make this card I used:

Cardstock by Recollections
Krafty by Core'dinations (*New)
Vintage Photo Distress Stain 
The Heirloom Stack by DCWV
Drink Labels by Lifestyle Crafts
Spectrum Noir: IG4, EB7
Ebony, Sepia by Martha Stewart
Sakura pens: 12, 22
Image by Free Vintage Digital Image *(New)
Hemp by Darice
Paper by Recollections
Tuxedo Black by Memento
Happy Days by Cardz TV
Air Travel by Tim Holtz
Frayed Burlap by Tim Holtz
