Can You Case it? Design Team - Sketch Challenge CYCI #75

Happy Sunday!  This weekend it’s been all about dad, we like to really spoil Chris so we’ve been having lots of family time and are planning the fun to continue today (I love when we have an excuse to not have lots of plans and just go with the flow).  It’s only fitting since it’s Father’s Day, to share another card, in this case the card I made for Chris and I used this weeks Can You Case It? Sketch challenge as the inspiration for the card. 

I started with Soft Suede cardstock for the cardbase and then added a piece of Blackberry Bliss cardstock that I embossed with the Big Shot and the Arrows Embossing Folder.  Next I added a piece of Typeset Specialty Designer Series Paper that I sponged all over with Crumb Cake ink and then crumpled up in a ball and then flattened to add texture and then used a retired edgelit to cut the scallop detail on the edge.  I also wrapped a piece of Blackberry Bliss 5/8” Stitched Cotton Ribbon around the DSP.

For the main stamped image I used the Guy Greetings stamp set and stamped the words in Blackberry Bliss ink and the hats in Hello Honey ink and used Hello Honey cardstock for the base.  This was cut out with the Big Shot and the Circle Collection Framelits and then I punched out a circle for the mat using Soft Suede cardstock and the 2” Circle Punch and attached the whole thing to the cardfront with dimensionals.  The final touch was to add a Happy Father’s Day greeting and was stamped in Blackberry Bliss ink on Very Vanilla cardstock before being punched out with the Word Window Punch.

This stamp set is so great, we used it at a class on Friday and had so much fun with all the different images and coordinating greetings, it really is a must have!  The other design team members are sharing some great cards so go check them out for further inspiration and then come play along, we love to see what others create.
