I love this Sailing Home stamp set! Maybe it’s because I love the navy and Annapolis.
Tip: You could make the seagulls blue and only need one color of ink.
Stamp the sentiment on Basic White cardstock and then cut it out using the 1 5/8” Layering Circles die. The Paper Trimmer cuts the red pieces nice and precise. For the flag banner on the front, I just used scissors to cut a wedge in the red paper strip, but you could also use the Banners Pick a Punch. Glue the red flag you just made onto the back of the circle and then attach it to your card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I love the simple elegance of the inside of this card. Stamp the compass off of the sheet. I think it just adds more interest to not have the how image showing. Attach the red stripe first and then trim off any excess before you attach the white interior to your card base.
