This was such a fun card to put together! I loved the color combination – I thought it made a fabulous masculine birthday card – but if it’s not to your taste, make sure you check out my Color Combination Library for lots of different color palette ideas!

I stamped the main focal image on a scrap of Basic White cardstock and colored it in using the following blends:

  • Dark Pumpkin Pie for the kayak
  • Light Night of Navy for the oars and jacket
  • Light Mint Macaron for the sweat shirt sleeves
  • Smoky Slate Light for the hat & oar handles
  • SU 900 for the skin

Once colored, I then fussy cut it out with my Paper Snip scissors. Super simple and such a fun card to create!

  • Pumpkin Pie: 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″, scored at 4-1/4″
  • Sun Prints Paper: 3-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ (blue paper) and 1/2″ x 5-1/2″ (2 of the striped pattern)

    1. Hi Cindy! Great question! The fastest way is to go to Ebay and do a search for the stamp set you’re looking for. For example, on this one it would be “Stampin’ Up! Adventurous Journey.” If nothing pops up there, you can always reach out to me again and I have a private Facebook Group that is a Buy/Sell/Trade for our team and I can see if I can find it for you there!😃
