Good afternoon! Here's this week's sketch. The main idea is to use something besides a basic shape as your main layer. So- circles, rectangles, squares, and ovals are off limits. Many crafters have a plethora of other shapes to use. I have several dies from the Nestabilities Labels collection, among others! If you don't have any label dies, perhaps you have a stamp that can serve as a guideline to cut around.
I ended up using the Top Note die on my card. I've always liked how the perforated border looked. I didn't end up following my sketch exactly. Because I wanted to use the ornaments from Vintage Ornaments (thank you to PTI for making dies to make this set SO much more user friendly!), and they are quite large, I had to rearrange my elements.
Once I finished my card, I realized it's not that simple. However, the sketch itself is rather straightforward and it got me stamping!
Supplies:
- Stamps: Vintage Ornaments, Inside & Out: Holidays
- Paper: So Saffron, White, Sweet Pea DSP
- Ink: Pumpkin Pie, Early Espresso, Taken with Teal, So Saffron
- Accessories, etc.: Top Note Bigz die, Vintage Ornaments die, Diamonds Impression Plate, Baker's Twine
