Hello, Friends and welcome to my blog. What says "summer" or "vacation" more than seeing a sailboat as you stroll along the shoreline or from a nearby boat.This sailboat card is for a swap challenge and the assigned task was to use a toothpick. Can you see my toothpick? It's the mast! This card uses an MFT die, origami folding, and a Spellbinder die for the waves. The paper is from Colorbok and the sentiment was from the dollar bin --possibly Studio G--at a well-known craft chain. Thanks for stopping by.
