Welcome to the Crafty Challenge Blog Hop. This month our challenge was a sketch. Here’s a look at the card I created.

Here is the sketch that started it all.

I like to think of a sketch as a jumping off point. I cut some strips and decided to see where the pieces would take me. I am a card maker who likes layouts that are symmetrical and straight. I couldn’t quite do the wonky angles. I also decided to emboss the background as well.
instructions for the cheers & sips Sketch Challenge card
- Cut a Timid Tiger card base cut 4 1/4″ x 11″ and score at 5 1/2″.
- Cut a 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of Basic White.
- Adhere 4 strips of patterned paper cut 3/4″ x 5″ to the Basic White piece. ( I repeated one pattern twice.)
- Run the layered piece through the Cut & Emboss machine in the Glass Embossing Folder.
- Adhere this to the front of the card base.
- Die cut a 3″ Stylish Shapes circle from Pumpkin Pie card stock.
- On a Basic White circle cut (about 2 3/4″) with the “Dot Dash” pattern of the Spotlight on Nature circles stamp the word “Cheers” in Old Olive ink.
- Stamp several Lemon Lime twist mint leaves all over the white circle.
- Fussy cut a class with green liquid and mint leaves from the patterned paper.
- Adhere to the circle and the card base.
- Add three Holographic Resin dots to the front of the card.
- On a second piece of Basic White cut 5 1/4″ x 4″ adhere a 1/2″ x 4″ strip of patterned paper.
- Use Old Olive ink to stamp It’s Your Day! and Let’s Celebrate!
- Adhere to the inside.
