When I first saw the Travel Journey Designer Series Paper in the Summer Mini catalog, I was so excited to have some great masculine colors and patterns. When I saw the maps on it, I knew it would be just perfect for cards for my dad, since he loves maps! I decided to use this week’s Pals Paper Arts sketch challenge as a starting point.

Although the sketch is square, I decided to make a regular rectangular card because I wanted more of the map to show. I sponged the edges of the striped piece of designer series paper with Night of Navy ink so it would stand out a little more.

Stamps: Teeny Tiny Wishes
Ink: Night of Navy
Paper: Kraft, Night of Navy, Pumpkin Pie, Whisper White, Travel Journal Designer Series Paper
Other: Pinking Hearts Border Punch, Modern Label Punch, Word Window Punch, Natural Hemp Twine

I’m hoping that this paper comes out in a Digital Version soon! I really want to use it for scrapbooking last summer’s drive across the country. Otherwise, I’ll just have to use it to make a traditional scrapbook!
