What do ya do when you are itching to make a card with all the goodies you have to play with but have no idea where to begin? I turn to card challenges to give me a starting point, to give me a direction. It's like when you tackle a puzzle by finding the corner pieces. For today's card, I turned to the current/latest CAS(E) this Sketch #329 challenge.
CAS{E} this Sketch #329 |
This sketch was the perfect opportunity to use the new Scripty 3D embossing folder and I had also seen Krista Frattin's recent Stampin' Dolce project using the swiping technique (literally, take the ink pad and swipe down the card!), so I tried it with one of the new In Colors - Seaside Spray on the embossed Very Vanilla. I looked in my stash of "scrap/leftover from previous projects" and picked out the stitched label shape to use, only I decided I wanted some more colour so I cut out a new one in Soft Sea Foam. I had three sentiments (all stamped in Mossy Meadow) cut out, so I will be making two more versions of this card. Finally, another product I wanted to play with was the Medium Daisy Punch which I had just purchased. Both flowers are made from the same punch - the Mint Macaron was full size (2 layers) but the Petal Pink (also 2 layers) was "doctored" to make a smaller flower.
Just a couple of sequins from the Iridescent Sequin Assortment blinged up the flowers. I added the Very Vanilla Scalloped Lace Trim for good measure, but I think I was happy without the trim too.
I shall be off to make the other two versions and will share it on my Facebook page so be sure to check it out.
Enjoy your day xx
