Happy Monday! I was kind of doing that dreading Monday on Sunday thing when I decided to do a little craft therapy and whipped up this card using the awesome new sketch by Heather! This is definitely one I can see myself using over and over again! Here is Heather's sketch:
Here is my take on the sketch:
Supplies Used: Patterned Paper: Crate Paper Brook, Fancy Pants Life is Beautiful & Stampin' Up; Cardstock: Stampin' Up (Pool Party & Very Vanilla); Enamel Dots: My Mind's Eye; Ink: Stampin' Up Early Espresso; stamp: Stampin' Up Gorgeous Grunge; Punch: border scallop by Stampin' Up & Die cut label (Hello): unknown
I received this cute little label that said "Hello" in a swap this weekend and it was still on my desk, so when I was looking to make a card for this sketch it was perfect for the sketch and inspired the colors of this card! I then went right to my scraps drawer and found ALL these papers there that coordinated with the brown and yellow label! In fact I have used up basically ALL of this Crate Paper Brook line! I may have one very small piece left but that is it! These were part of my 100 paper challenge that I said I would use in like 6 months but in all reality it will be more like a YEAR!!! Now in all honesty I am using mostly other papers but I have been able to use some of these poor neglected papers that I have put in a special drawer. I do plan to clean it out this Fall and donate what is left and then go through my paper once again and add another 100 pieces to my drawer! I really liked these colors and I am sad to see this paper go but it's not like I don't have a bunch more to take it's place!!! I hope you will find time to play along with us this month at Sketch N Scrap, the DT did an amazing job with this sketch, so make sure and hop on over and check out what they did with the sketch! Happy creating!
Very cute card, Lisa! Good job with pulling from your 100 paper pile! Like you, I generally use other papers first, but I do try to pull from my pile once in a while!
