Welcome to our Create with Stamping Friends Inspiration Monday challenges. This week’s inspiration is a sailboat regatta! Those are fun to watch!

SUNRISE SAILING
Yep…just had to use my Sunrise Sailing Bundle on this challenge! But, instead of coloring, I used strips of cardstock! See how I did it below!

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Thick Basic White, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- The 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Cloud Cover cardstock was brushed with Secret Sea Ink using the Blending Brush lightly in the background.
- Three strips of “water” were cut from Secret Sea cardstock with the Sunrise Sailing wave dies and added to the bottom of the Cloud Cover layer, then trimmed off the sides.
- The large and small clouds were cut from Basic White cardstock and the larger one stamped with the greeting from Sunrise Sailing stamp set using Secret Sea Ink. They were added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Strips of Coastal Cabana, Soft Sea Foam and Flirty Flamingo cardstocks were cut in different widths and adhered to a Basic White cardstock square larger than the boat. The sailboat was stamped with Secret Sea Ink over them and then cut with the Sunrise Sailboat Die.

- A second large boat was stamped on Cloud Cover cardstock and the space between the sails cut out and adhered over the colored cardstock.
- The outline of the boat hull was colored with Light Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends.
- The same technique was repeated using Lemon Lolly, Pumpkin Pie, Real Red and Azure Afternoon cardstock strips and cut with the medium sailboat sails, then mounted on Basic White cardstock sailboat base and the hull colored with Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends.
- The smallest sailboat was cut from Basic White cardstock.
- All were assembled on the waves with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
