SHOPPING OUR STASH #451 - Let's Get Sketchy

 

Good morning and welcome crafty friends!
Happy August to you, (can you believe it's August already?!).
We have a fun new challenge starting over at 
Donna is your Hostess this fortnight, and she's found a
link to some free sketches from Craft With Sarah. There are four
sketches to choose from, so have fun and I hope you play along!
I've chosen to use the first sketch for my card:

I tweaked the measurements some to fit an A2 sized card,
but I followed the sketch pretty closely otherwise:


Here's the inside:

Boy did I shop my paper stash for this. Most of the papers used are 
15 plus years old! The paper flowers were a score last
year at Tuesday Morning, (before they sadly went out
of business). so you know they are even older than a year.
I hope you can join us this fortnight at Shopping Our Stash,
and create a card using one of the four sketches.
Thanks for visiting. Have a great day!

  1. Beautiful Christmas card, great take on the sketch, I love how you layered the banners with black it makes them pop.

  2. what a beautiful version of the sketch, and a beautiful card all-round! i love that striking but soft color palette, especially (and the skinny skinny black mats so totally set the whole thing off!) ♥

adding pinterest script 3. Changing the Position of the Pin it! button The cool thing about this code is that you have some freedom over where the Pinterest button for Blogger will go over the image. Take a look at the code that you just copied and pasted into the HTML for the word 'center'.
