Hi All!
It's time for another sketch challenge at Skipping Stones Design! This week's sketch is designed by Chan Vuong and we're continuing to welcome Betsey Veldman, Jimmi Mayo, & Jessica Griffin as our guest designers!
Here's my take on this week's sketch!
supplies: CS: Kraft (Bazzill); stamp sets: Rustic Tiles, Everyday Blessings (Skipping Stones Design); inks: Chocolate Chip, Basic Black, Riding Hood Red (SU!); mini Brads: Creative Impressions.
Ok, if you've been following my blog for a while, you know that I usually don't do one-layer cards! But for some reason, this sketch "spoke" to me and said - "Create a One-Layer Card!" So I did. *lol*
I used one of the fabulous texture stamps from the Rustic Tiles set (which, by the way is on sale until the end of the month for $12.49!) and paired it with the beautiful bird and sentiment images from the Everyday Blessings set (my favorite set!). I added the little bitty brads from Creative Impressions as a center to my texture stamps and VOILA! I've got a one-layer card! So not me, but I love how it pushed my creativity and thinking outside the box! :)
I hope you get a chance to play along with us this week at Skipping Stones Design! There are stamps to be won - hope you join us!
Have a fabulous day!
This is such a fabulous design!!! I love that you chose Rustic Tiles for the border. Great job JoAnn! I hope you have a fabulous Thanksgiving!!!
