My project today is another card I made using the Chic Challenges CC01 Sketch.
I’ll admit .. until we launched Definitely Sketches I had never used a sketch to create a card before …. shocking I know!
And …now that I’m getting the hang of it …. I’m liking it! I will admit I still get caught up on things being exact and with Card Sketches …. they are not meant to be exact.
That’s how this card came to be…. at first when I looked at the first Sketch …. I thought I needed the circle to come off the card …. like the sketch shows it.
But … after I made my first card ….I decided to try it in landscape mode instead of portrait … and lose the circle coming off the edge.
Here’s how I made the card.
- The Pool Party card stock measures 8-1/2 x 5-1/2 and I scored it at 4-1/4.
- Emboss the front of the card base with the Perfect Polka Dot Embossing Folder.
- Stamp greeting on Whisper White Card Stock that measures 4 x 1 and tie Pool Party Seam Binding around it.
- Add that layer to the card using Stampin Dimensionals.
- Stamp butterfly with Pool Party ink and cut out with the Elegant Butterfly Punch and add it to a Whisper White 1-3/8 Circle.
- Add the white circle to a 1-3/4 Pool Party circle with Snail Adhesive and add it a 2-3/8 White Scallop Circle.
- Add Scallop Circle to card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
