October hostess, Frances Byrne, has informed the CCEE Stampers that today is World Octopus Day! She has therefore declared that the CCEE Stampers should include an octopus or other sea animal on this week's cards.
I searched my collection high and low to see if I could come up with an octopus. Turns out I have no octopus stamps or die cuts, but look what I found in my Graphic 45 tub!! These papers are from their By the Sea collection and work perfectly for World Octopus Day, if I do say so myself!
The links below will allow you to see the wonderful "Octopus Day" designs by the rest of the CCEE Stampers Design Team:
What a great card for that challenge. I love Graphic 45 paper. (Sadly the two stores in my area that used to carry the DP went out of business) But I still have a bunch of papers I haven't used yet... And yes, I also have the paper you used. I would never have thought to use it the way you did. So creative.
ReplyDeleteFabulous card
ReplyDeleteOOH! I LOVE the nautical bg and that beauty, but the border with the octopi right-side-up and upside-down is fabulous!!! Hugs, mf!
ReplyDeleteLynn, you've created another beautiful card! You do that every single time... love your style!
ReplyDeleteLucky you! No octopus stamp, but that's great paper for this challenge! Love your card!
ReplyDeleteLynn, I love your creations. This is a clever attempt.
ReplyDeleteLoved the beautiful border on the background and colours.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous card and image Lynn! You can never go wrong with Graphic 45 papers, very beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLove this beautiful paper. That graphics 45 is one of my favorites for their designs and the beautiful double sided papers in their collections. Fabulous card, Lynn and that is a great pattern of octopi on that band.
ReplyDeleteWonderful paper and love the vintage image.
