Bonnet Bouquet Friendship

5/1/20 Top Rocker at 613 Avenue Create!

Hi everyone! Hope you’re having a wonderful day! I’m playing, for the first time, in The Outlawz Wednesday Sketch Challenge and I’m getting my card in just in the nick of time, lol! Here is the sketch everyone has been playing with for the past two weeks:

I’ve been crazy busy and set some time aside today to make a few cards. What better way to spend time ‘social distancing’ than playing in the studio?! I hope you all are staying well and staying safe! Jan’s Digi Stamps is our sponsor this month and I used her Bonnet Bouquet digi stamp set to create a friendship card. What a fun sketch and what a beautiful digital stamp set!

I did change things up a bit – I created a square card and rotated the oval element to the left. I used pretty golden yellow gingham paper and cardstock to match the golden yellow flowers in the digital image. I off-set the ovals beneath the focal element and layered all the elements on black cardstock – which looks rather striking if I do say so myself. ;)

I added some shimmer to the flowers and a little dimension to the flower centers.

For the inside, I layered the sentiment panel on gingham paper and layered both on black cardstock as well.

One more peek… just loving how this turned out!

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We care for 15 feline rescues and just added a Forkie pup to the tribe (Frenchie + Yorkie)! I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty or puppy lovins! ;) View all posts by LeslieT
