Dandy Wishes
October 6, 2009
CPS is a blog that hosts sketch challenges every week. I usually need a kick to get started when creating cards, and sketches are a great kick. This week’s sketch at CPS (CPS136) is a cool multi-layer card. I was a little daunted at first glance, but their sponsor this week is Gina K and I just purchased a dandelion set from her store that I thought would be perfect.
I white embossed the dandelion on a blue panel then found some DSP that had blue and green in it. I don’t have my sewing machine (I feel like I want that tool every card I make!), so I faked it with piercing and pen. Not perfect, but I like the fun touch it added. I rounded every corner, not something I normally do, but I like it on this card.
Wishing you Happiness
