This week's Blogger's Challenge was to create a card based off of the layout of THIS CARD in the new Stampin' Up! catalog.
Can I just say for the MILLIONTH time how much I love a "sketch" challenge? It just makes card making SO much easier. I made this card in about 15 minutes... just because I didn't have to come up with the layout.
I started by looking for patterned paper that I liked. Then I matched up several shades of card stock that coordinated and picked out stamps that I wanted to use.
The floral images are from Lizzie Anne Designs' Floral Frenzy set. I just love the design of these images -- and they take ink so well. I added color with Copic markers and dotted the centers of the flowers with Liquid Pearls.
Supplies:
Paper: My Minds Eye: Front Porch, Picket Fence Table Cloth
Card Stock: Pumpkin Pie; Cool Caribbean; Certainly Celery; Shimmery White (SU)
Stamps: Lizzie Anne (Floral Frenzy); sentiment by Papertrey Ink
Accessories: Liquid Pearls, Copics, Martha Stewart eyelet border punch; paper piercing tools; brown grosgrain ribbon; Ranger Distress Inks (for edges)
