I am back with a second card on this Good Friday.
This time I used the inspiration from the Muse card club.
Therese Calvird is the muse this week, with a lovely nautical themed card. I also used a stencilled background for my red sail ship, but restricted it to a circle background, The same basic vertical layout was kept, with the focal point moved to the upper centre position.
I used drywall tape as my stencil and 'faded jeans' distress ink. Therefore I will also be linking up my card at Virginia's stencil challenge at Virginia's view challenge #2.
My sentiment says : "Congratulations!" in Afrikaans.
The challenges:
Thanks so much for visiting me today!
I love the feeling this nautical themed card evokes in me - fresh air, sunshine, summer days, and ocean breezes - utterly sweet!
ReplyDeleteThis is a really fantastic take on the Muse this week, Hannelie! So glad you joined us! Happy Easter!
ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous. I love the stencilled circle and the red sailing boat looks wonderful on top of it.

Love the clean and crisp look of this design!! The stenciled background is awesome, Hannelie! Thanks so much for playing Virginia's View Challenge!
ReplyDeleteThis is fantastic, Hannelie! Love that you've used drywall tape as your stencil! It came out so cool! The red boat is perfect, and wonderfully framed by the blue and the red panel. Blessed Easter, dear friend. Bev
ReplyDeletewhat a clever use of the drywall tape! love your little red ship!
ReplyDeleteOh my...another AMAZING card! So gloriously clean & graphic! "Swell" idea (as in ocean swells) to use the drywall tape for your stencil...that stuff is so cool! This wee sloop is guaranteed to sail into a winning spot in the card regattas!
ReplyDeleteThis is so fantastic !! I like the way u enlarged the boat on ur card, looks like I am seeing the card through a magnifying glass ;)
ReplyDeletePragtig, vrou!!! Ek is natuurlik mal oor drywall tape, maar gebruik dit meestal net vir scrapbooking - jy het dit pragtig as stensil benut!!! Die rooi bootjie is pragtig en die rooi lyne wat so afloop is eenvoudig perfek!! Lieflike stukkie werk!!
ReplyDeleteGroete.
NS. Hoop julle het 'n baie geseende paasnaweek!!
That is one of the cleanest cards I have ever seen done with a stencil. Wonderful, Hannelie.
ReplyDeleteI love this card. So clean and fresh-looking. I can almost feel the wind blowing in those sails!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful take on Therese's card - love the contrast of the drywall grid stencil & circle panel!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant...I love how you used the drywall tape...so cool!
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty card, Hannelie! I love that you used dry wall tape to create your stenciled background, and your little red boat is so charming!
ReplyDeleteFabulous card Hannelie, love how you have created the patterned circle panel for the boat, it really makes it pop!
ReplyDeleteWhose little red boat die? Love your card and can't wait to go find my drywall tape!
