Hi Everyone,
Today its the Stampin' Birds Showcase Hop where we each show something we have been working on. I love sketch challenges for getting ideas for layouts so I tried one today and used the Tea Boutique dsp and the Artistically Inked stamp set for a really quick and easy card.
The sketch I have used is from US Demonstrator Terri Gaines and I have tweaked the measurements to allow for UK A4 card stock
Materials
1 piece of sweet sorbet card stock 5 7/8" x 8 1/4", 1 piece 3/4" x 5 7/8", scrap for the sentiment
1 piece of basic white 3 7/8" x 5 5/8", scrap for the sentiment
1 piece of dsp 4" x 3 3/4", 1 piece 4" x 3 1/4"
Sweet Sorbet Bakers Twine
Sweet Sorbet ink
Artistically Inked stamp set
Double Oval Punch
Trimmer
Bone Folder
Multipurpose adhesive
Dimensionals
Instructions
On the long side score the card at 4 1/8" and fold and burnish to make the card base.
Adhere the dsp as shown in the sketch.
Add the strip of card and then wrap the twine around it and tie in a knot.
Stamp a sentiment on a scrap of white and punch out and then layer up on the larger scalloped oval and add to the card front with dimensionals.
Stamp a sentiment on the remaining piece of white and add to the inside of the card.
I've added some decorative dots t the centre of the flowers and the sentiment.
