Soft Friend
I made this sample for today’s sketch challenge as well as this weeks Color Challenge on SCS. Now looking at the sketch again, I see that I didn’t follow my own sketch! Oopsie!!!
The card base is a 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ piece of Basic Black cardstock.
The next layers were put together before adhering the 4″ x 5 1/4″ Western Skies Designer Paper layer on top of the card base with dimensionals.
The horizontal designer paper is also from the Western Sky pack and measures 1 1/2″ x 4 1/2″. A thin white strip was adhered to the left hand side. Over it a 1 1/4″ black circle punchout was placed and a Antique Brass Jumbo Eyelet with Striped Pumpkin ribbon added.
The Pumpkin horizontal layer is from the Bali Breeze Designer Paper pack and measures 2 1/2″ x 3 7/8″. A small scallop border was added on the bottom part. That scallop border was cut with a long rectangle Nestabilities die template. The top part of the pumpkin layer was paper pierced.
For the sentiment I cut a black scallop rectangle with my Nestabilities and cut Soft Sky and Whisper White layers to match. Then I went looking for a set that would fit and match the designer papers I picked. I ended up with True Friend and stamped the sentiment in black in the center of the white layer, with a second generation stamping of the flower in Soft Sky behind it.
Three 1/4″ black circles on the bottom with Ruby Red brads and a double photo corner with black brads finish off the card.
