Today's featured stamper is Sue aka Perk aka Coffeestamper. This is Sue's card that was my jumping off point for inspiration: MMTPT114-FOR KYLER! by coffeestamper at Splitcoaststampers I started with all my reds, and then changed to green because the gingham was closer. I wanted to use my sailboat instead of apples in this clean sketch, but then I found this sentiment and it worked in so well. Instead of the circle sentiment I placed in buttons but because of the placement of the boat, I had to switch them to the other side!! Sue, you have a gallery full of wonderful cards; thanks for inspiring this one that is intended for my soon to be born grandson! The sailboat was a free template that I downloaded but handcutting is not my thing!! Need to find me one of these in a die cut!

Michele, you are so gifted when it comes to adding "sweetness' to your cards! This is especially huggable! Your mix of papers is delish, like a fine quilt, and those clouds! Delightful my friend! Hugs, lymi.....
