My colleagues often post challenges to make cards using specific colours of a specific layout, so I thought I would have a go at this one. This one was posted by Tricia Smith on Smiths Crafty Creations on Facebook, please pop on over to her site and have a look, she makes some amazing things.
Materials
1 x 7" x 10" piece of card stock for the base, score at 5" to make a landscape fold
1 piece dsp 6 3/4" x 4 3/4" (I've used Come Sail Away)
2 pieces of contrasting dsp 6 3/4" x 1"
1 piece of soft suede card stock 6 3/4" x 2"
Scrap soft suede card stock for largest circle
Scrap crumb cake card stock for smaller circle
Layering circle dies
Die cutting machine
Delightful Day stamp set
Night of navy ink
Dark mossy meadow blend
Multipurpose adhesive
dimensionals
Gems for embellishment
Instructions
Fold and burnish the card base.
Adhere the largest piece of dsp to the front of the card leaving a small border all around.
For the contrasting dsp, I've used the one with the lines of rope and cut 1" strips showing the night of navy rope and adhered these top and bottom of the piece of soft suede strip.
Then cut out a large 4" circle from soft suede and a 3" one from the crumb cake card stock. Stamp the sentiment in the centre of the smaller circle with night of navy ink and glue this in the centre of the larger circle. Pop the large circle up on dimensionals and place centrally on the left hand side of the card.
I've stamped a sentiment inside the card in night of navy ink and added a few pearls to the front which I've coloured with a dark mossy meadow blend I don't have a night of navy one).
Card sketches are great fun, why don't you have a go.
Happy crafting,
Karen XX
