Wednesday’s Design by Robbie

Good Morning! If you remember yesterday I talked about how to plan your cards. I gave you 3 different methods that could help when you are struggling. Today’s card was created using this strategy.

When I realized I had to do a card for my assigned day I wasn’t sure what I was going to do. I remembered that one of the blogs I read is by a very talented stamper who has posted stamps on splitcoaststampers.com as well as had several of her designs chosen to be posted on the Stampin’ Up demonstrator website. Beate Johns has blog titled Fresh and Fun . I read her blog every day and on the weekends she has a sketch challenge where she gives out goodies to the winner of her challenge. Now you may say I do not have the talent needed to compete against all the other stampers. Never fear, the winner is chosen randomly using an online selector.

I saw this sketch posted on Friday and decided I wanted to participate in her challenge this weekend to create my card for Wednesday. Using her sketch, here is the card I created.

Stamps: Stem Silhouettes Paper: True Thyme (Incolor from last year), More Mustard, Ruby Red, Very Vanilla Ink: True Thyme, More Mustard, Ruby Red Accessories: More Mustard and Ruby Red markers, dimensionals, antique copper brads, sponges for edges

I inked up the images and stamped them 3 times without reinking. This created the hint of the image in the background of the main image. I hope you enjoyed this card and now have some strategies you can use when you hit a slump in your stamping.Have a great Wednesday and thanks for looking!
