Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge.
Show all posts
I had a request to make a special invitation for a girlfriend. This invitation is going to her male friend, so I tried to keep it masculine. Adding the Very Vanilla Slider probably dropped the masculine factor down a few notches, but, nothing's perfect right???
I started with the Sweet Sunday Sketch at Karen Giron's blog. She always has great sketches and I love a good challenge ;) I leafed through my Sweet Pea Paper Pack and decided on this sheet. It uses: Old Olive, Taken with Teal and So Saffron. Not three colors I would put together on my own, but I love them! The inside has a Very Vanilla mat that I stamped with the invitation details: Time, Place, Date & RSVP. Hopefully he accepts her very special invitation. TFL!
Stamps: Circle Circus and Hugs & Wishes (Retired)
Paper: Old Olive, Taken w/Teal, So Saffron & Very Vanilla Cardstock; Sweet Pea DSP
Ink: So Saffron & Taken w/Teal Classic Pads
Accessories: Scallop Trim Border Punch, Circle & Scalloped Circle Nestabilities, Very Vanilla Hodgepodge Hardware & Ribbon Originals (Retired)
Something Old, Something New...my Urban Oasis DSP is what's old and my Circle Circus stamp set is what's new. I needed a masculine birthday card for my brother-in-law and I think this qualifies. There are no bows, no pinks and no scalloped edges.
I did use some brads, but I think they're OK ;)
I had two conversations this week about how hard it is to make masculine cards. I think Circle Circus is the perfect set to have. Pair it with some blues, greys or greens and you have a card good enough for your dad, brother, son or friend.
I hadn't used my Urban Oasis DSP in quite some time, so it was nice to work with an old friend. It's retired now and I am wishing I would have bought more. It's colors and designs are timeless.Hope you like it...TFL!
