I don’t often create perfectly square cards for some reason. Our sketch challenge at Create with Connie & Mary is the perfect sketch to use to create a square card. The card for today is 5″ x 5″ and did you know you can make your own envelopes to fit this size using our Simply Scored Scoring Tool?
Here is this week’s Sketch Challenge:
My Card:
I just couldn’t bring myself to glue the “tag” in the sketch at an angle. My stamped layered just did not look right angled that way so I glued it on straight instead. I just love the embossing created with the Delicate Designs Textured Impressions Folder. Love the scallops of the embossing:
Isn’t this stamped image adorable? I used a Blender Pen and my Ink Pads to color the image. The stamp set is called Wonderful Winterland and even comes with those little tiny snowflakes in the background:
I stamped the sentiment from Joyous Celebrations and the sentiment actually says “Sending Christmas Wishes” but I tucked the Decorative Label Punch shape under the image layer so that the word “Sending” is not showing. Pretty clever huh?
These are the Stampin’ Up! Supplies I used:
- *Cardstock:
Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White - Inks:
Baja Breeze, Raspberry Ripple. River Rock, StazOn Jet Black - Stamps:
Joyous Celebrations, Winter Wonderland - Tools:
Big Shot Machine, Apothecary Accents Framelits Dies, Decorative Label Punch, Delicate Designs Textured Impressions Folder, Scallop Square Die, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Sponge Dauber, Small Heart Punch, Blender Pens - Accessories:
3/8″ Stitched Satin Ribbon, Pearl Jewels - DSP:Snow Festival
