My card used a reverse frame technique from Natasha Foote with Altenew's Nesting Arches. The berry clusters are from Gina K Designs newest kit - Strawberry Harvest embossing folder, dies, and stencil; sentiment from Sunny Days and Breezy Nights. The inks I used were inspired by Meghann Andrews: Medium and Dark Cranberry, Grass Green, Medium Spruce, and Sweet Corn.
Hope you will play along! The challenge runs through Sunday, July 5th.
Do you have friends or family with a July 4th birthday? I have three friends with birthdays on the 3rd, 5th, and 6th. So I am making some cards today to get in the mail. This is a pull-tab flip card design from Connie at Simply Simple Stamping.
The cake image on the front is an older Art Impressions stamp, also used an ancient set from CTMH for the stamped stars and star brad, and the sentiments are from Gina K Design's newest kit.
Challenge #698 starting now at Try A Sketch On Tuesday
and you can also craft along with our sister blog Double Trouble and their 3-2-1 challenge that began yesterday. (see below)
My DT inspiration for TSOT includes some ink blending, stenciling with silver paste, a bit of stamping and a die cut sentiment and heart. It's a mini-slim line card (3.23"x6.25") I went for a literal interpretation of the sketch because I loved the cascading stars.
Optional Twist: use some glitter or sparkle on you card.Crafting today is inspired by several challenges, beginning with the sketch from CAS Colours & Sketches #587. Also linking to AAA #316 1+1 selecting summer and beach, and to Just Us Girls #827 Summer challenges.
Ink blended with Gina K inks, tag die also from Gina K. Stamps are CTMH sets about 2007, sentiment from Altenew.

Every July our P.E.O. chapter has a wine tasting event hosted by a wonderful sister. We gather with appetizers in her lovely yard and sip and visit. She also began a book club for the chapter "Reading Between the Wines" :-) This is a thank you card for her event coming up this year. And it is also for TIMEOUT challenge #314 favorite beverage!
I used the My Favorite Things wine glass die and the shaker insert. I gave the glass a layer of Liquid Glass. This card uses all ancient stuff from my stash! Some CTMH paper and a set CTMH called Bon Appetit from 2009. Like fine wines some products age well!
Computer generated sentiment.
New challenge at Try A Sketch On Tuesday!
Love this cheery plaid paper and had just a small piece remaining and an embellishment. Such a quick fun card. I used a Lawn Fawn scalloped circle die and CZ Design Just Saying stamp and die set for the sentiment.
Thanks for visiting my blog today. Hope you will play along at TSOT, and also check out our sister blog challenge at Double Trouble.
