Uncharted Territory Stampin' Up! SetThis morning I am celebrating the redesign of www.ustamp4fun.com.  If you are reading this post via email… come on down and let me know what you think!  It took me about as long to optimize its faster loading as it did to design.

This set reminds me that I totally miss living near the ocean.  As a teenager I would bike 20 miles to Jones’ Beach from Seaford, Long Island.  I can’t imagine doing that now.  I would likely need to be scraped off the pavement after a mile or so, LOL!  And there is no danger, now that I am land-locked her in Pennsylvania.

This new set ‘Uncharted Territory’ from the new Stampin’ Up! Idea Book & Catalog is so awesome that it has disappeared out of my stamp room.  Seriously, its missing and I’d like it back someone, LOL!  Anyway, if you click on the catalog link above, you may not have noticed, but you can type in the search bar ‘Uncharted’ and it will bring you right to the page where it is featured.

Uncharted Territory - Stampin' Up! Set Detail ShotIt think that the secret to the success of this card is the layering.  I also used a new embossing folder and watercolor crayons and an Aquapainter for a very simple wetbrush technique.

And for the design inspiration, I actually got the idea for the card layout from the gift bag sample in the catalog.  Go check it out!
