Loving Blue and White Together

 Howdy!

Blue being my favorite color (next to pink) so I had to join The Color Hues Challenge for January 2026.

Speaking of 2026, my camera is old and the year date doesn't have 2026. See, it reverted to 2008! Really, I took the picture today!

What is also really old is my Stampin Up sailboat punch. I am not sure how old and I doubt that I've used it is years.

My cardbase is SU Night of Navy and the lighter blue is Boho Blue. I embossed the piece of blue with the Altenew folder called Ribbon Waves. 

The white paper is from my scrap drawer. I doubled up the moon and sailboat images but not the stars. The moon was done with a small punch.

I used the tiny star from a cluster of stars in the Stars At Night die set and glued them with tiny dots of Tombow glue.

It's the first time I have used this embossing folder, so am adding my card to NBUS # 82 and adding to the Snippets Playground #524 beacause of the found pieces of white. 





A very cold day here in MN, with the temp in single digits with a lot of wind making it feel even colder. A good day to stay in and craft!

Thank you for visiting and I hope you will come by again.

Blue is my fave colour too Jeanne - so this card really works for me. A lovely bit of moonlight sailing.

Thanks for coming to play in the Snippets Playground. See you up in the treehouse for a mug of hot chocolate shortly. Xxx

Jeanne, I laughed at your camera reverting to 2008! Oh, sometimes I think it would be wonderful to turn back the clock :-). I love your calming and serene card. The soft blues work beautifully together and I love how you captured the feel of the full moon and night sky. Fabulous card. Stay warm, my friend :-) hugs, jaydee
