Looks Like Another Sketch Challenge
I managed to tackle another challenge over the weekend, this card being for Beate's WSC #50. This one was quite straight forward but I still felt the need to consult my 8 year old, Tiarna, about a few things. She certainly seems to have an eye for design and creativity... she confirmed my assessment of what to do and what not to do with this card ! The large Looks Like Spring flower was stamped on Very Vanilla cardstock using Close to Cocoa ink, with the second flower being stamped a second time to make it slightly darker (it's more noticeable in real life). Also on Very Vanilla cardstock I stamped one of the images from Circle of Friendship using Handsome Hunter ink. I punched this out with a 1" circle punch after punching out the center using a 1/2" circle punch. I cut the flowers out, layered them and stuck the inner circle on as the flower center. This was mounted onto a piece of Old Olive cardstock that had been stamped and sponged with Old Olive ink using a dimensional. The River Rock background has been stamped with both diamond images from Looks Like Spring, wrapped with Very Vanilla taffeta and Old Olive/River Rock ribbon from the Theater Ribbon Originals pack, and mounted to the Close To Cocoa card front. The outer section of the circle sentiment sits in place with a extra piece of Theater ribbon tied in the middle. The large flower piece has been layered over top with dimensionals (bet you didn't see that one coming!).
