Thinking of You- A Sketch and Color Challenge

Hi Again Stampers!!

I am having a great time in my stamping room today so I think this may be a record for posts in one day for me..

While my hubby watches his baseball games, I decided to create a card using the HSSSC164Sketch at Hand Stamped Sentiments (I flipped the sketch over) and the DD62 Challenge Colors from The Dynamic Duos.  

Again, if you have not visited these sites yet- stop by and check out all of the inspiration!!

To create this quick CAS card:

Using the hexagon punch, punch out various pieces from the Modern Medley Designer Series Paper (DSP).  Adhere the hexagons per the sketch onto Basic Black cardstock and carefully trim around the outer edge by hand.

Adhere this panel onto a piece of Calypso Coral DSP from Epic Day This and That.  Add the 5/8” Basic Black Satin Ribbon bow along with the banner sentiment. 

Mount the entire panel onto Basic Black cardstock and add the butterflies and pearls to finish off the card.

Stamp Sets:  Papillon Potpourri, Wetlands

Ink: Basic Black

Paper: Very Vanilla, Basic Black, Epic Day This and That DSP, Modern Medley DSP

Accessories:  Punches- Elegant Butterfly, Hexagon, 1” Square, Pearls, 5/8” Basic Black Satin Ribbon (retired)

I think I will have to make this card again in a different color combo- it was definitely quick and easy!!  


Thanks again for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful Wednesday!!

  5. Be still my little heart! Hexagons with pretty butterflies! I love it. And you know, I feel bad about leaving my hubby to watch all the O's games by himself sometimes...I sneak off to make cards whenever I hear the roar of the crowds :) So glad you joined in at HSS! Erika
