Joy's Life Boat Shaped Card

When Joy asked us to make shaped cards this week, I knew I wanted to use my new Life's a Beach Cricut cartridge.

I heat embossed the sentiment from the Pun in the Sun stamp set using Clearsnap top boss embossing ink, and top boss white embossing powder. The boat was cut with the cricut cartridge. Then I used the kraft base layer and traced it onto a folded piece of cardstock, which I cut out by hand to use as my card. I then adhered the die cut to the card front. I made the card base kraft, which was the same as the base layer of the boat, so I used a pen to outline the cut parts for a little more definition. I also colored in the port holes.
