This schooner / pirate ship die set is one of my current favorites and I’m so thrilled it’s carrying over to the new catalog. 

The accordion fold is a really easy card to make with the measurements on the pdf above. And it looks great both standing up and it folds flat to fit inside a regular envelope.


I designed the panels to look like the waves of the ocean flow across the card. Like each panel is part of the larger scene.

I added some special touches such as embossing the sails with the cross hatch embossing folder. I also added a piece of Vellum behind the windows of the ship for a frosted look.

These are a few more fun fold cards I created with the On the Ocean stamps & dies. I have tutorials for both:

    Wonderful! So many great details Tami like the vellum for the frosted windows, the embossed waves and that each panel adds to one big scene. Thanks for taking part in the Trip Achievers Blog Hop this month.
