SC377

I saw the sketch at Splitcoaststampers , and decided to have a go at it:)!!  Here's my card and the sketch:

I loved the lines of this sketch and wanted to do the challenge to prove to myself that I could take a sketch that "looked" like a lot of layers and make one with very few!!  I stamped and embossed the black panel with a background stamp from Hero Arts and then used a Spellbinders oval die to cut out the middle.  I cut 2 panels out of a bazzill bright pink colored paper, and attached them to the black panel.  I then cut the middles out of the pink panels to show the white of the card, stamped, added ribbon and button brads(yes, I am doing my part to bring back brads...after all...I have SO MANY OF THEM!!!).  I punched the flowers and added black stick on dots.  Popped up pink panel on card.
Thanks for visiting me today!! Hugs!! Lisa

  3. Love how you managed to take a fussy (in my humble opinion! LOL!) sketch and make it feel clean and simple by reducing the layers a bit. Great idea to have that cut out window! Congrats on almost 1 year!
