Heya crafty friends! I thought I'd join in on this week's TGIF Sketch Challenge. It's a really cute sketch and I had a great time creating a card with it!
There are so many fun and interesting possibilities with this sketch. Since I had been creating with the Symbols of Fortune collection, and still had the products strung all over my workspace, I chose to use them for this card too.
I used Soft Succulent for the card base (8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"). It's a gorgeous color and it looks gorgeous with the Symbols of Fortune Designer Series Paper (DSP).
The first layer of the card front is 4 1/8" x 5 3/8" Basic White Cardstock that I've embossed with the Tasteful Textiles Embossing Folder. It's one of my "go-to" textures. I really like it. It's so versatile and looks terrific with all sorts of themes.
I cut a couple strips of DSP and a strip of Gold Foil to embellish the front. I also die cut the large flower cluster from DSP. I fussy cut the smaller flower, but it's really simple to do. My DSP strips are 3 3/4" x 3/4" and 2 1/2" x 5/8", and the Gold Foil is 3 3/8" x 1/2". The sentiment is stamped in Evening Evergreen ink onto a piece of Basic White Cardstock that's been die cut with the 2nd skinniest Stitched Rectangles die.
A little Linen Thread behind the small flower, and a few of the soft and beautiful Polished Dots, finish the card off nicely I think.
I hope you liked my card. It came together so well, thanks to the TGIF Sketch. If you'd like to see more cards using this sketch, visit the TGIF Challenges blog post here:
