I love card sketches!

This one is so versatile! Card Sketch #122 is the next card sketch in our series. I have turned the sketch on it’s side for a little variety. I turned this one into a fun fold.

Measurements:
BASE: Strawberry Slush 5 1/2″ x 8 1/4″
scored at 1″ and 4 1/4″
Basic White CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″, scrap for punch and
die, 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ strip
Vellum: 3/4″ x 5 1/2″

Adhere the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Basic White layer into the inside of the card base.

Fold back the 1″ panel on the card front.

Adhere the vellum to the upturned panel.
Adhere the 1/2″ strip under the panel and then adhere the panel down.

Punch the Rounded Rectangle punch out of a scrap of Basic White CS.

Stamp the “thank you” from the Scalloped Blooms Bundle in the Black Hybrid ink pad. Blend the edges with a blending brush and Strawberry Slush ink. Pop up on Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Die cut the large leaf die from the Nature’s Symphony die set from a Basic White scrap.

Adhere to the front of the card over the vellum panel.

Pop up the sentiment over the leaf die.

Add some In Color Flat Pearls to finish off this easy lovely Sketch card.

Try turning a sketch on it’s side or change the dimensions of the elements – the possibilities are endless! Now it’s your turn to create some artwork – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’

something old, something new

by nataliegramleystamps | Apr 16, 2021 | card samples

Today I’m using a great “old” stamp set (one in the Current catalog Daisy Lane (#149325) it’s coordinating Daisy punches – Daisy (#143713) and Medium Daisy (#149517) and the retiring Classic Label punch (#141491) (so sad to see this one go – it is a perfect punch size for those thin one liners! I started off with a new 2021-2023 In Color for the card stock base – Soft Succulent and used the matching ink I created a tone on tone background.

Next I Embossed the front of the card with the Tasteful Textiles Embossing Folder (#152718) just to give it some additional, subtle depth and dimension.

In Tuxedo Black Memento Ink (#132708) I stamped the large and medium daisy images from the Daisy Lane set onto Basic White cardstock (#159276) (TIP: I pre-cut Basic white cardstock into three sizes and always have on hand half sheets of cardstock cut in the middle at 4 1/4″ and the opposite way cut at 5 1/2″ and then 1/4 sheets of cardstock as well! – makes it easier to create cards with these already pre-cut!)

Using the Crushed Curry (#149014) and Basic White and Daffodil Delight (#141709) Watercolor pencils I colored in the petals and then brushed them with our Water Painters (#151298) It is hard to see the white on the petals but it does soften the harshness of the black ink and tone down the flower!

I punched out my flowers using the Daisy punch (#143713) and the medium Daisy Punch (#149517)

I built my flowers using three flower punches and as I adhered them one on top of the other rotate the flower slightly so the petals alternate and do not sit directly on top of one another. I pulled the top layer away from the other two bottom layers and “fluffed” the flower for some dimension!

I added White Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon (#146912) before adding the flowers to the cardfront.

I added a little bit of wink of Stella (#141897) to the petals and adhered them to the card. I stamped the sentiment from the Daisy Lane stamp set in Soft Succulent and popped it up on Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) and added it onto the card!
