SunnySide of Crafting

If you have a moment check the bottom of this post for a picture of a whale's tail that I took while kayaking.

Today's color scheme:  Sahara Sand (card base), Taken with Teal, Pumpkin Pie  and Sweet Pea DSP (Occasions mini-catalog – pg. 33)
Ribbon:  Pumpkin Pie grosgrain
Stamp set:  Whimsical Words

I scored the Sahara Sand 4 1/4 x 11" at 5 1/2" and then cut off an inch from the front card flap.  The card flap was edged with the Scallop Trim Border punch (Sale-A-Bration – pg. 9).  I attached a 1" x 4 1/4" strip of Sweet Pea DSP to the inside card flap.  The sentiment from Whimsical Words was stamped with Pumpkin Pie ink on Whisper White paper.  Yep, another quick-n-easy card for you.  I wanted to use the flowered paper from the Sweet Pea DSP to draw the card recipient's eye to the stamped sentiment.  Here's another view of the card:This view helps provide a perspective of the card being partially opened.

Whale Tail!

This is a photo showing the end of the whale's tail as it glides back in to the ocean.  We were kayaking outside of Kawaihae Harbor (Big Island – West Side) and I did my best to grab a whale shot.  You never know when or where you are going to spot  a whale.  I also have the camera packed away so that means digging it out, getting it turned on, and then trying to snap a picture from a bobbing kayak.  My husband was working on re-rigging my line so that's why the fishing line looks funny.  OK—the whale's tail!
