Nautical Birthday Cards

Hello friends~  I'm going nautical today with a few cards that I made using some of my mom's old craft supplies as well as using some dies that my dear friend Marcia sent me last year that never got used up.  I was in desperate need of masculine birthday cards so these cards definitely fill the bill.


This card uses a Jolee's sticker and a couple of added dies from Poppystamps.


Another Jolee's sticker and a cute little anchor tag from Taylored Expressions that was a freebie in one of my orders.  Sweet!


These last two cards use some dies that my sweet friend Marcia sent me as well as some Elizabeth Craft Dies.  

I'll be entering one of these cards into the following challenges:
Dies R Us ~ Anything Goes
Word Art Wednesday ~ Anything Goes
AAA Cards ~ Summer Fun
City Craft Challenge ~ No Flowers

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Blessings~ Birgit

I am having a hard time trying to make nautical cards for the SSS Challenge; I have sailboat dies but didn't even think about using a lobster. You always think outside the box and come up with the neatest ideas. I love your giant lobsters.

Oh my gosh Birgit...I love every one of these cards! You definitely put those die cuts to good use and I'm thinking maybe I should get those dies out again and make some of my own now that I've seen your beauties!! Well done my friend, well done!! :0)
