Happy middle of the week to you! I hope your week is going well. As with most Wednesdays, I’m here with your mid-week inspiration from Freshly Made Sketches. Our own amazingly talented queen of layers, Narelle Farrugia, has created this super cool sketch with layered rectangles. So many ways to go with this!
I thought I would try a collage style background using this flower from Beautiful Day by Altenew. It remains one of my favorite stamp sets! I recently ordered some of Altenew’s inks and I pulled out Coral Berry for this card. Isn’t it the most gorgeous pink?! I stamped the solid image all over some Thick Whisper White Card Stock (SU) using that ink and then stamped the line image in Versafine Onyx Black ink randomly to fill in spaces. I used the sentiment from the set and stamped it with the Versafine too, then layered the sentiment and the image panel onto Basic Black layers. I added a little bit of black thread and some sequins as a finishing touch.
This kind of card is super easy to create and you can use a variety of stamp sets to get this effect. I’m really happy with how this came out and want to try some other sets and colors! Ok….you know the drill. Go check out the awesome projects from the rest of the team…you’ll be happy you did!
So glad you stopped in today. I hope you like this one! Back soon with another card….see you then!
