Good Morning Everyone!
Well it rained all day today and is supposed to rain through Wednesday. Perfect for being creative and spending time in your craft room. I was only able to get in there a little bit yesterday as I had to go to the post office and then went to Lowe’s to buy a new cooktop. I am hoping to spend more time in there today.
Our challenge this time at Hand Stamped Sentiments is a color challenge.
I knew with these colors I had to do something clean and simple. I found a perfect sketch for that at CAS Colours & Sketches.
This sketch was a real challenge to come up with an idea. Add in our color challenge and you can imagine the real challenge I had. I looked through my catalog and ran across the Stamp a Bag set. I decided to try the zig zag stamp in black and gold on vanilla to address the colors. After I stamped the zig zags I cut them out and offset them as in the sketch. All I needed then was something to pull it all together. I thought about a sentiment so I went looking at my thinlets and found the perfect on in the Greetings Thinlets. I cut it out of gold glimmer paper and my card was completed. Here is my creation.
