Guest Designer: STAMPlorations Sketch #27


Hi, friends!  I'm super excited to say that I am a Guest Designer at STAMPlorations this month for their current sketch challenge!  Woohoo!


The sketch they have for this time around is super fun and has TONS of potential!  Come and take a peek at it...


Isn't it cool?!  SO many possibilities, right?  I had a ton of fun using some stamps from the STAMPlorations store to create a fun and CAS card using it...check it out!


I started by creating a main panel using kraft cardstock from The Paper Studio.  I dry embossed a frame onto the panel using a dry embossing folder from Stampin' Up!.  I then added some patterned paper from Michael's to the inside of the frame.  A feather stamped from the Trendy Feathers stamp set from STAMPlorations and a few pearls from Stampin' Up! finished this portion of the card.


I then added some white baker's twine from Stampin' Up! as a bow and a sentiment from the Chevron & Arrows stamp set from STAMPlorations and some more pearls from Stampin' Up!.


This panel was added to a card base that had been prepped with a strip of the same patterned paper from Michael's that was use on the inside of the frame.  I think the finished product is pretty swell!  What do you think?  I'd love for you to leave me a comment and let me know!


I'd like to enter this card into these fabulous challenges~




That's all for now, crafty friends!  I hope you hop over to the STAMPlorations blog and join in the fun of this sketch challenge and that you leave some love with the other gals on this DT.  Until next time, HUGS and happy stamping, all!

Mynn, this card is so amazing! From the moment it was uploaded I just wanted to tell you how cool and graphic this was. It's hard to use red, white, and blue in a non-patriotic way, but you've done it so well! AWESOME work.

Love how you used the script DP and carried over and under the frame and made the feather into a quill.
So pleased to see you as our GD this time. :)
