We made two each of these cards, at my Masculine Stamp-a-Stack class over the weekend. Thanks ladies for making it a fun afternoon :) The stamps we used are from the a la carte, single stamp range, available in the Autumn/Winter mini catalogue. These are phenomenal value and perfect for the men in your life. The products in the mini catalogue are only available until 31 July, so contact me today to put your order in - you won't want to miss out.
The Sail Away card with the jumbo eyelets was one I cased from Denise Ibbett. I loved it as soon as I saw it and so did the ladies on Saturday. Thanks so much for sharing Denise.

I held a repeat brayer class on Saturday and while all my inks were out (well, not exactly all of them because that would be 45 colours), but while 8 colours were spread out over my bench top, I decided to have a play. I started off following Michelle Zindorf's (the world renown, Queen of Brayering) most recent tutorial, but adapted it a bit and used the new single stamp from the Autumn/Winter Mini catalogue Sail Away (for $17.95 this is phenomenal value). I'm happy with the end result but next time would stamp the sailing boat more in the middle.
Stamp Set: Sail Away

I hope you all had a lovely long weekend and managed to get a spot of stamping in. Thanks for looking :)
This card features one of the new single stamps that is in the Autumn/Winter mini. Isn't it great! It's called Sail Away and costs only $17.95. As mentioned a week or two ago, I had a brayering class last week and so had to get a bit of practice in beforehand. I have cased this card from someone out there in blogland (sorry, I can't remember who) and really like the simplicity of it.
Stamp set: Sail Away
Cardstock: Whisper White, Not Quite Navy, Basic Black
