I couldn't resist another try at the CAS(E) this Sketch challenge this week!! Aaaahhhh simplicity...how I LOVE IT!! Here's my card and the sketch...
I used the Impression Obsession Cover a Card stamp, Birthday Words, using the top left corner of the 6" square stamp, masked on 4 sides, for my multi lined SENTIMENT part of the card.
I clear embossed the sentiments...loved the pretty shine the words got!!
In an attempt to perhaps encourage someone out there, I'll let you in on a little secret...l stamp imperfectly!! The reason that the panel is raised is that I stamped the sentiments on cards crooked so many times, hoping for a one layer card, that I finally stamped one that I could cut down to "look" just right...yes, sometimes you just have to go with imperfect...and for a perfectionist, that's a HUGE thing to admit!!!
I used a Paper Smooches flower for a POP of color, and an enamel dot for it's center.

ReplyDeleteOh Lisa this looks wonderful! The perfect BG for this sketch, cleverly masked!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are playing along at CTS!
Wow! I love how you masked a portion of your stamp, and that little flower is adorable! I hear you about the stamping, I feel so much less stress by stamping on a panel, and adhering is to the card!
ReplyDeleteOh wow!! I LOVE how you masked your stamp for the sentiment block. It looks so cool. That little flower you used is perfect for this card. Fantastic design!!
