Welcome back! It is time again for another Create with Connie & Mary creative challenge. We have a sketch challenge today for which I have made a “blocked” thank-you card.
The Challenge:
The Card:
I am so happy about this challenge as it gives me a chance to use the few scraps I have left of this gorgeous designer series paper (DSP); Hues of Happiness. The blocks I made of DSP are 1 1/4″ square, and the Pool Party mats are 1 3/8″ square.
Blocked Thanks Details:
The Highland Heather base is 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, scored and folded at 4 1/4″. I glued a Gorgeous Grape strip of cardstock (CS) measuring 5 1/2″ x 1″ across the bottom of the card about 1/2″ from the bottom. After arranging and dimensioning the four blocks on the card, as shown, I stamped the sentiment with Gorgeous Grape ink on a So Saffron piece of CS measuring 5/8″ x 1 3/4″. I used my bone folder to slightly curl the sentiment layer before adhering it to the card. As seen in the photo above, I added a 1/2″ strip of the DSP to the inside of the card.
The Finishing Touches:
Finally, as my finishing touch, I added a Gorgeous Grape Glossy Dot to the sentiment. I hope you like my interpretation of this sketch challenge and that you will continue to see the other Design Team’s creations here.
