CBGMDT SPRING SKETCH

SPRING SKETCH

I cut an A4 white card to 14cm x 29cm and scored approx 10.5cm along from the left hand side of the card.  Using 2 sheets of 6x6 light green patterned paper, I covered half of the back of the card and all of the front of the card using d.s.s.t.

I cut a narrow strip of pale pink shimmer card and attached them horizontally with d.s.s.t to each side of the card.  I chose a Sugar Nellie stamped image (courtesy of http://karenscards.blogspot.com/) and coloured it in with a small selection of Pro markers.  Unfortunately I don’t have a Blender Pen in my pr marker collection.....yet!  So there’s not much blending or shading in this project!

I matt and layered the stamped image onto lime green and purple card and attached it to the right hand side (back) of the card.  I stamped my sentiment (Have a bloomin’ great day) using a lilac ink pad on plain white cardstock and rounded each corner with a corner punch.  I then matt and layered the sentiment on the green and purple card, which were also rounded at the corners.

To finish the card, I applied 4 pink adhesive gems, one on each corner and a thin piece of pink ribbed ribbon down the left hand side of the card.  Pink and green flower embellishments were positioned just under the sentiment.
