Card Sketch Wednesday #22-2016

Today's Sketch Challenge:



Today's card  is a 5" x5" square card. I used paper from the My Mind's Eye Lost & Found Two. Also, used the stamp set from Sweet N' Sassy Gone Fishin' , and Fran-Tage Mica Fragments in pearlized and bronzed. I used Elizabeth Crafts peel-off stickers to create the 2 fishes on the front. I used my sizzix  circle die, the oval die, and the oval scallop lace die. The card base is 5" x 10" scored at 5". The first layer is 4 7/8" x 4 7/8" and attached that to the front of the card base. Then I took my circle die and I covered it in vintage photo distress ink using my blending tool. Once that was completed I used a stampendous! stamp called Faux Finish Quad Cube to create the distressed look and texture on it. After attaching the circle to the bottom left section of the card I took the oval die and cut out a coordinated pattern paper to attach to the the oval scalloped lace die cut. once those were put together I attached foam tape to the back and place in the location where it was located in sketch. but before that I did take the Gone Fishin' sentiment stamped in on a piece of scratch paper and taped it down before attaching the oval piece. The 2 fishes I used pop dots to give dimension of the front and placed them one by the sentiment and the other above and to the right. To finish off the card I added sequins and where the second fish was I added the sequins to look like bubbles coming up from the one fish.  ~Tantalaya




This is a simple card.  All the pieces on the card were cut from my Cricut.  I used several shades of pink, I wanted the flower to pop.  The sentiment is from some of my old stuff from Creative Memories.  It is just a nice saying on vellum cut to set inside the doily.  ~Paulyne

  1. Both cards are really great. I love those fish and after seeing both of them, I will have to rethink using sequins. I don't tend to use them, but both cards do a great job without being overwhelming.
