Welcome to another Saturday sketch challenge! You can find all of the links here, at the Utah Divas blog. Today is sketch number 132, pictured below. I was really looking forward to working with this sketch since I've used a similar sketch before and found it to be very versatile.
I planned on rotating it on its side, so it would be horizontal rather than vertical. It's funny how I ended up where I am with this. I was working on swap cards featuring the new Postage Stamp punch (#122344, $15.95) which demonstrators can order from the summer mini catalog, available to customers on May 1. Anyway, I had some "stamps" left and decided to use them on this card. Obviously, they are squares, not circles, but I think I have the freedom to interpret the sketch that way if I want to. Anyway, I had also used the Framed Tulips embossing folder (#121809, $7.95) to make squares, rather than the full rectangle, so I thought I might be able to make an altered rectangle as well. Voila! It worked. Here's the card.
Here's the recipe:
Stamps: Baby Bundle, Teeny Tiny Wishes
Paper: Blushing Bride, Whisper White, Crumb Cake and Chocolate Chip
Inks: Crumb Cake, Chocolate Chip
Accessories: Big Shot, Framed Tulips embossing folder, stampin' dimensionals, Postage Stamp punch, sponges, 1" square punch (non SU)
I think this would be just as cute done in Bashful Blue or Baja Breeze for a baby boy.
It's been a quiet week for me. I am on some new medication that is making me very tired, so I have not been too productive. Oh well, this too shall pass! If you are following the Diva Sketch Challenge, the next stop is Elizabeth's blog. I'm sure she'll have a special card to show us this week.
Thanks for stopping by. As always, I love it when you give me some feedback on my work. Have a wonderful weekend!
Blessings,
Barbara
