This card was inspired by a sketch challenge over at CAS Colours & Sketches<\/a><\/span><\/strong>. As a Design Team member, no matter how much I love this card, I could not put it up as an inspiration piece for 2 reasons. Not a lot of “white” space, though fun to create, by definition it is not simple. I deemed it unworthy for clean and simple and created another card that follows this concept, however far fewer parts and pieces. I will link it below so you can check that one out as well. I am thrilled with both cards, but I adore this one. So much fun to create, so many techniques – shabby chic! I just had to get this one out of my head before I could go clean and simple. I just adore this one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For reference, this is the sketch I was working with from CAS Colours & Sketches. The skewed rectangle, screamed out tag to me, so I had to go with it. The card on the bottom is what I posted for the challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hope you like this card, it was so much fun to make! A little bit of stamping, stamp masking, coloring with Stampin’ Blends, stenciling with Pattern Party Decorative Masks, blending using blending brushes using Blueberry Bushel and Old Olive, edging with Crumb Cake ink and a dauber, black splatter from a paint pen, punches, a butterfly die, Specialty Designer Series Paper, embossing and a piece of ribbon pull everything together into a super cute card. Did I mention I love it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
