I loved the sail boat stamp set, when I first saw it. But, i wasn’t sure how much I’d use it. And now (and here) I see absolutely wonderful cards done with it, and kick myself for not purchasing it! I love the colors you chose and little bits of metal you added to your card. How wonderful!

Hi! Lovely card, and the wind catches the sails of that boat—makes my hart stop. A great compeition, which does remind me of my trips to Scandanavia. I stood on that dock!
You gave the name of the staamp as “sail away.” Is that a Stampin’Up stamp? I’m not too familiar with their line, if it is actually theirs. Thanks for any help!
