It's time for our first August sketch over at the CAS Colours and Sketches challenge blog. Loads of possibilities with this one.
As always, feel free to flip and/or rotate the sketch to fit your design.
Here is where the sketch led me.
I initially had lots of ideas but I couldn't get four images to fit onto an A2 sized card. After multiple attempts it dawned on me to make a mini slim line. Duh! This one is very straightforward. My finished card measures 3.5" x 6.25" which is the size I prefer. (Love these mini slim line envelopes from Taylored Expressions.)
I began by stamping my four circles in alternating colors and then stamped the swirls over top in black. I stamped the greeting as per the sketch and added a sliver of b/w diagonal striped patterned paper on each side before popping the card front onto a white card base.
I invite you to visit our blog and hope to see your card in our gallery!
Supplies:
Simon Says Stamp - Favorite Flower stamp set
