FTL 71

Happy Friday everyone! Here's today's sketch. A few tips for you- #1- you don't have to make the focal image an ornament, the idea was basically to have something hanging from the bow or knot. #2- if you don't have a larger scalloped edge punch, consider using a smaller one, or consider using a few circles to make your fancy edge! Supplies: Stamps: Vintage Ornaments (Papertrey Ink) Paper: Kraft, Taken with Teal, Real Red, White, Holiday Lounge DSP Ink: Taken with Tea, Real Red Accessories, etc.: rhinestones, real red grosgrain, scalloped edge punch (EK Success), silver cord

FTL 70!

Hello! I hope all my American readers had a wonderful Thanksgiving and are enjoying all the shopping deals today. Here's this week's sketch. I decided to have some fun designing with the images from Stampin' Up!'s Digital Studio. I suppose I could have actually turned this into a fully digital card instead of just a sketch, but I figured I'd bring it to life with paper and stamps. So here's my take on the sketch. If you're wanting some dimensions...
  • The card is 4.25x5.5.
  • The apricot piece is just over 4.5x3.25.
  • The turquoise piece is 1.75x3.25
Supplies: Stamps: Big Bold Birthday, Polka Dot Basics, Vintage Picnic Paper: Certainly Celery, White, Tempting Turquoise, Apricot Appeal Ink: Certainly Celery, Rich Cocoa, Tempting Turquoise, Apricot Appeal Accessories, etc.: Chocolate Polytwill, brad, pop dots
