#SimpleStamping Saturday Sailing Home. Welcome to another SimpleStamping Saturday and another Quick and Easy Project. I really do enjoy coming up with these projects. Saturday is the day I reserve for projects aimed at a new crafter, or one with less confidence in their crafting ability. The other projects I share are very much aimed at Crafters with more experience, so to keep Saturday for the These Quick and Easy projects is very special to me. That said, I have had a few comments asking for some more information about making the Casual and Avid versions, so I will include Dimensions from now on, and I will try to include a few more details. Do remember, you can always watch the video back a few times of you need more information than I share here.
Today I am using the Sailing Home stamp set. This is a great set for both men and women and can either be used to build a scene, or used to represent a feeling or emotion. Super useful with a selection of great sentiments. The Quick and Easy card today is exactly that, Quick and Easy. It uses just one of our Note Card and Envelopes with only one ink pad, although I have made it in two colourways, just to show the difference that changing colour can make.
The Casual version is not a huge step up, other than using coloured card and both ink colours, the only addition is some of the Baker’s Twine from the Suite and some Dimensionals. This really is one that a beginner could have a go at without too much worry. I deliberately selected colours that are in the same, Neutrals, Colour Family, so all you need to buy is the Selection pack and some Whisper White card, plus the Baker’s Twine. It really is a tiny step up, but still shows off the Sailing Home stamps.
The Avid version uses the exact same layout, but introduces the dies that match the stamp set. Remember that if you buy them as a Bundle you will save 10% off the price of both items!!! As you can see, the layout is exactly the same, with the only difference being the use of the dies.
Take a look at the video to see how I made the #SimpleStamping version and for a closer look at the 2 stepped up versions. I hope you agree that the Sailing Home stamps really are amazing for so many different projects.
