I used the Lilypad Lake Bundle to create today’s nautical congratulations card which includes custom made backgrounds using images from this stamp set. The Lilypad Lake stamp set can be purchased separately but I think today’s video will convince you that you’ll want both the stamps and their coordinating framelits. Purchasing items as a bundle also provides you with a 10% savings.
I’ve created today’s card as a congratulations card but it could easily be changed with any of the other greetings in this set to cover other occasions. The video is packed with tips on creating custom backgrounds as well as a tip for creating perfectly cut layers.
I’ve included pictures, cutting dimensions and supplies for today’s card below the video. Speaking of setting sail, don’t miss my customer appreciation gift details listed below!

You’re welcome, Lorraine. Glad you enjoyed this!
Thank you Lisa for a great card and very informative tips. I really enjoyed your video and I made the card straight away. Loved it. Thank you.
You make me smile big when you tell me you’ve already made the card yourself–that’s wonderful! Thanks for tuning in 🙂
What a great card! I always enjoy your videos with lots of tips. Viewing from The Lower 49 ~ enjoy Alaska!
Thanks! So glad you enjoyed this 🙂
Love this card Lisa, and as always a great video with lots of instruction. Thanks.

What a great card! Enjoyed watching the video. You are an excellent teacher.
Thanks Pat! I’m happy to be able to teach others to make these fun cards 🙂
Love it! Perfect idea for my nephew’s birthday card. I just love this stamp set, I have found that I reach for it quite often. Thanks!
It’s definitely a great go-to stamp set isn’t it, Janice?! I just know your nephew will love his card!!!
Lisa, you are FABULOUS. Thanks for another wonderful tutorial. I love to hear you explain things, you’re a great teacher and an excellent performer (I don’t know if the word is correct), but I think you’ll understand. I like the colors – they’re just mine.
Greetings from Germany. We’ve got summer, summer, summer with up to 34° C (what is not normal in our area), but it’s just GREAT!

Thank you Evelyn! And yes, I totally understand what you are saying and I’m so flattered. Your words are very dear to me! I love this color combination too. Living in Florida I well understand the heat 🙂 Stay cool if you can and hopefully the heat wave will break soon.
