Good evening! What a fabulous weekend. I was able to attend Stampin' Up's regional seminar in Baltimore on Saturday and it was so fun to see my favorite stamping friends, swap, and be inspired by lots of creative techniques and ideas, awesome! Then today I completed by first 10K race, and the best part was I finished!!! So with everything going on, and spending some quality family time I actually only made it down to my studio for about 20 minutes the whole weekend, but it was long enough for me to make a card for this weeks
Paper Craft Crew Sketch Challenge. This sketch is so fun since you can make it as simple or as detailed as you want. I choose to use the
Tea for Two designer series paper as my focal panels and since there is so much detail in the paper itself I kept the stamping really simple.
The cardbase is So Saffron and I added a Crumb Cake panel that was embossed with the Big Shot and the Hexagon embossing folder. Next I sponged all over the cardstock with Crumb Cake ink so the detail really pops off the page. I cut three panels from the DSP and then matted each of them on Bashful Blue cardstock before cutting the flag tails on the bottom.

The greeting is from the
Wonderful Mother stamp set and is such a perfect little stamp set for upcoming Mother's Day projects as well as birthdays! The greeting is stamped in Early Espresso ink and punched out with the
large oval punch before being sponged with Crumb Cake ink. This piece is then matted on a piece of Lucky Limeade cardstock punched with the
decorative label punch and once again, sponged with Crumb Cake ink before being adhered to the card with
dimensionals. The final touch was to add some
Pretty in Pink 1/4" stitched grosgrain ribbon to the card, including a simple bow that has a small button brad from the
Vintage Trinkets.
While this card is nice and simple it's so soft and lovely, I love it! I'm sure you can have a lot of fun with this sketch challenge, give it a try.
Have a great week and happy stamping,
Diana
