Hello!
Happy Saturday! Stuart has a mountain of work to do today so I'm left to my own devices - housework and stamping it is then! We are having a BBQ later - yum yum!
I'm playing along with the Freshly Made Sketches challenge today. When I saw the sketch, I must admin, it filled me with fear. I have a real thing about wonky things, or things on a diagonal... sometimes they can look great but if you don't get it exactly right it can look really wrong. I'm definitely a straight line girl! But I was determined to give it a go.
I looked at the sketch but wasn't paying as much attention as I should have been and ended up switching up the two layered pieces. I think it looks okay like this too!
Stamp Set: Itty Bitty Banners, Geometrical
Ink: Baked Brown Sugar, Tangerine Tango
Cardstock: Very Vanilla, Coastal Cabana, Baked Brown Sugar, So Saffron
DSP: Retro Fresh
Punch: 1 3/4" Scallop Circle, 1 3/8" Circle, Merry Minis
Embellishments: Sweet Sorbet Accessories
Other: White Gel Pen
I love the stripes and thought they'd make a great background on the card! Such scrummy colours!
The scallop circles were distressed to look more fluffy and give a bit of texture to the card.
The stars were a later addition that just seemed to fill in the space nicely.
Hope you liked this short and sweet card today.
Happy Stampin',
