Hello everyone! It is time again for another Stamp Off Challenge with Buffy, Jackie and me. This time our challenge was a rectangle challenge. Of course, the first thing I thought of was using the Stitched Rectangles Die but I use them so much (because they are my favorites) so I decided to take a different route and just cut pieces of cardstock and Designer Series Paper into rectangles and use them.
To make this card I first went through my scraps of cardstock and Designer Series Paper to see what I had available. I came across a lot of little pieces of the Come Sail Away Designer Series Paper. This is why I chose to use the stamp set called Sailing Home with the matching dies called Smooth Sailing to make my card. It is one of my favorite bundles and you can save 10% buying them together until June 2nd. After that they will still be available but not at a discounted price.
I used a Whisper White card base and adhered a rectangle of Night of Navy cardstock to it (which has already been cut to this size so it was perfect. Then I rounded the corners on the Designer Series Paper using Detailed Trio Punch. This is a great punch because it does three different things to your cardstock. The good news is this punch is being carried over into the 2020/2021 Annual Catalog! I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Night of Navy cardstock using Versamark and heat embossed it with Silver Embossing Powder. Then I cut of the wheel using one of the dies in the Smooth Sailing die set. This die cuts and embosses which is fun.
Now let’s go see what Buffy and Jackie made using rectangles. Do you think they used the Stitched Rectangle dies?

Such a nice monochromatic color scheme and a unique interpretation of the sketch. Love the rounded corners on the rectangles and the die cut embellishment.
