Hi again! I'm back today with another Skipping Stones Design Sketch! I've had so much fun this month as a Guest Sketch Designer and want to thank Heather and everyone at Skipping Stones Design for including me in the fun this month!
Here's my last sketch for the month...
I hope you like the sketch! :-) Make sure to check out the Skipping Stones Design blog for all the details on how to play along as well as how you can be entered to win a fabulous prize!
For my card, I strayed just a bit from the sketch as I chose not to add a sentiment. :-) One thing I love to do, is create generic cards that can be given for a variety of occasions. I usually just add a sentiment to the inside as my card when the need arises!
I used three different Skipping Stones Design sets. For the background of the center strip, I embossed one of the blocks from the Rustic Tiles set (which also happens to be on sale right now :-). I then added an embossed frame from the Sentiment Frames set. I just adore tone-on-tone embossing! :-) Finally, for the focal image, I embossed (and colored with markers) the large butterfly from the Healing Wings set.
Here's a close-up, so you can see the texture that the tone-on-tone embossing creates as well as the wee bit of Sparkle I added to the butterfly! :-)
Oh, did you notice my card had NO patterned paper on it?? So I am still able to create without it...I had my doubts for a while! LOL!
