Hello Everyone ~ I have great Sailing Home Masculine Idea today.
Technology is still not my friend! You would not believe what I went through yesterday. It began about 2:30 when my neighbor knocked on my door and asked if I had TV. I did not and I lost my internet. His Landscaper cut my fiber optic cable. We called the cable company and they said they could come out on August 4th. I told them that was a problem as I work from home. She said they will see if someone can come out in the evening.
So I spent some time in my studio making some cards. When I finished up I had to post that I was cancelling my Facebook Live as my cellular signal is not good so it would not be a good feed. I then started to work on my post for today. I went looking for the video for the card today. I could not find it on my phone. I even tried to see if I could recover it and that did not work. So not sure if it didn’t record or if it got deleted. So I just decided to work on my photos and edit them and download as I had a few to do. That is when more issues arose. My phone would not download my photos. I did some research and I have to have WiFi to download. I connect to my neighbors and thought everything would be fine. Well I was wrong there. I still could not download them. I decided to try and download 1 at a time. Well that worked and I then proceeded to download my photos 1 at a time. A few would not download so I went back and reverted back to the original. Then I could download them. That meant I had to edit them after I got them downloaded. As you can see technology was not good to me. I am hoping today will be a better day in the area of technology!
Today’s card again uses the Greenery embossing folder. I decided to use one to make a panel for the card front. The lighthouse was stamped and then the bottom was embossed. To add some interest I angle cut the panel. The rest is pretty straight forward. Here is my Sailing Home Masculine Idea.
Features of the Card
- Sailing Home
- card base ~ Basic Gray – 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″

Good Morning Robbie,
The angle cut adds interest and depth to the card.
Thank you for sharing and your time.
On a side note Nascar is here this weekend 🙁 and I will have to pass this year due to the virus.
Take care Lin
Thanks Lin! I loved the idea of the angled cut. May have to use it more often. So sad you have to pass on Nascar! Thanks for taking time to leave me a message.
