By The Sea in a Teacup

It's a super eventful week with the Stampendous Design Team this week, so keep coming back almost daily here on my blog to see what's going on with the following blog hops...



Here's my sea worthy project for today. It's an adventure worth trying when you're the size of a teacup boarder. Amanda, Muzzy, and Mudpie are sailing the big wide sea in makeshift sailboats just for them. How fun is this trio! 
When I made this card I had just purchased a roll of airbrush low-tack frisket. I was so excited to try it because of two distinct reasons, I wanted precision masking and I love to use an exacto knife with a fresh pointed blade. Does that make me uber artsy? lol

I used frisket quite a few times when I was an intern in high school and then again the same method with Amber Acetate Film in college... and a fresh utility knife blade. Yep, I'm dopey about cutting things with the ease of a super sharp tipped blade. I did a quick search of my photo folder and didn't find any step out photos on the process, so hopefully I can make one up the next time I'm masking an image.

The hop started at Verve's blog , so come hop on board and see over 5 dozen projects that are sure to get your Verve on! I've been waiting for the right time to blog about this project and when the opportunity came to join in the anniversary blog hop for Verve I knew it was time. My blog hop project today uses all Plain Jane Bible verses from Verve. I saw this project at Susan Roberts gallery on Splitcoaststampers and went to her blog to get the details . I decided to make one for my mother as a Christmas present...in 2008. Yep, I just now finished it and I have the blog hop to thank. Using sketches would have made this a whole lot faster. LOL The two cards shown in the picture above use the latest Plain Jane release for Psalm 121:1-2 (hanging on box) and Hebrews 11:1 (in front of box). And I'll give the details below, but first here's a slide show of the whole year. Hebr...
