S & S Sketch Challenge #172
Another week has flown by and we are back at Sunday which means the Stars & Stamp Sketch Challenge . Here is the sketch for this week - - -
- - - And this is what I came up with.
I just love this SU sentiment for our heroes and I wanted it to be the focal point. The patterned paper is by Crate Paper. It is cut out with Postage and Square SB dies. The little flower is by AMuse and I colored it with Copics. I have black bulky Glitter by SU in the flower center and Glossy Accents covering the glitter. The Lattice embossing folder is by SU. I do hope all Mom's out there had a wonderful day today, I know I did. In between visits and calls from family I even found time to do some yard work and I managed to get this card made. So all in all it was a great day. Now I need to go make some cookies, because I think I'm in the mood for something sweet.

Love the sentiment and the die the panel is cut with. I also like the embossing and flower with its glitter center. Beautiful card! Glad to hear you had a good Mother's Day. Enjoy those cookies!
ReplyDeleteI like the brown / yellow colors on the pretty embossed background. Glad you had a nice Mother's Day.
ReplyDeleteI just love how you layered the squares and postage stamp die for the sentiment - what a fabulous look! The flower accent on the side gives such a nice balance too!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad your mother's day was a good one. We pulled weeds in the flower beds too :)
Donna, this is a great card for a service person. Love that embossed background, and the sentiment is perfect. Glitter in the middle of the pretty flower looks fabulous. Hmmmm, warm cookies from the oven on a cool day.....now you made me hungry!

I'm back from my weekend getaway and was just looking at this sketch, wondering what I could do with it. I LOVE your card and it's great inspiration for me, Donna. Thanks! Beautiful background texture from that embossing folder and I love the way you matted your sentiment. :-D
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic job you did with the OWH sketch, this week. I like that you showcased the sentiment and put the flower to the side.
ReplyDeleteThis is a sensational take on the sketch, Donna! The showcased sentiment and flower look perfect on that background!! I wonder if I have the makings for cookies . . .
ReplyDeleteLove this sketch and your card is so cute. I really love that bulky glitter in the middle - great idea. That is one of my favorite sentiment stamps for SU as well - works well for your card too. Hope you got to make your cookies - wish I could have had one. Hugz!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Donna, I love everything about it. Beautiful example of a CAS card. Love how you showcased the sentiment, and your placement of the flower. Thanks for playing!
