The adventure begins

Today’s post features some retired Stampin Up products including the Maritime DSP, the Open Sea stamp set and the Advemture Awaits stamp set.

Calm Seas

Todays card is a simple masculine card using some of my favorite retired Stampin Up products.  The background is from the High Tide DSP collection and the sentiment is from the now retired Adventure Awaits stampset.

Chosen Path

Today’s post is all about the beauty of brayering and inks to create a beautiful scene.  For the sentiment, Cammie used the now retired Adventure Awaits stamp set from Stampin Up to complement her card.

Keep Curiosity Fresh

  Today’s post is all about the paper.  3 layers of fabulous Adventure Bound DSP (no longer available) from Stampin Up and the sentiment from the now retired Adventure Awaits stamp set is stamped directly onto the top layer to create an all occasion and very masculine card.

Choose the Road Less Traveled

 The Stampin Up World Map Background Stamp #130345 is the focus of this masculine card. Cammie distressed the background of this card using the Gorgeous Grunge #130517 to give the overall look of the card a vintage feel. She then layered the stamped world map securing it with Washi Tape and then added the sentiment from the Adventure Awaits stamp set (no longer available).

No matter where your travels take you, the vintage feel of the World Map stamp will make you feel like Magellan charting a new course to a far-off destination. Perfect for travel projects or just to give a vintage vibe, you’ll love where this image takes you.

Maritime Fun

 Our family loves all things nautical.  Or dad was a USNA graduate and our sister is currently serving as a nurse in the US Navy so today’s card is a tribute to all sailors.

The background DSP and the hand cut banner are from the Stampin Up Maritime (now retired) DSP. The sentiment is from the Adventure Awaits (now retired) stamp set and then cut into a circle using the Stampin Up Circles Collection Framelits #130911.  Cammie added the embossed Anchor from the Guy Greetings #137178 stamp set.

Let the Adventure begin

 Today’s post is another masculine card that shows that a simple piece of Stampin Up’s now retired Adventure  Bound DSP paired with the sentiment from the Adventure Awaits stamp set (also not available) can make a powerful statement.
