SC402 – Full of Blessings

September 12, 2012 By Connie | 2 Comments

Yeah! I had time to play along with the sketch challenge on SCS today! It is a fun one, too! Here's the sketch:

I converted the sketch from a square into a more usual regular sized card. I grabbed one of my newest sets, Full of Blessings from the Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog. I love to color when I have time! My Orchard Harvest class this Friday is also getting a sneak peek of one of the cards they will be doing! (Well, I might change it up slightly! lol!) Hope they like it!

The base of the card is More Mustard and I layered on Early Espresso.
I added strips of Orchard Harvest Designer Paper.
I cut the Window Frame Collection framelit from Very Vanilla and stamped the image from Stampin' Up!'s Full of Blessings in Black Stazon.
I watercolored with my AquaPainter and Stampin' Write Markers.
It is layered on a square of More Mustard and I pierced the corners with the Festive Piercing Pack.
I wrapped Linen Thread around and tied a bow…then added the greeting and extra DSP flags at the bottom!

I love stamping cards, altering 3D items and making little favors. I've been stamping for over 23 years and just had my 22nd Stampin' Up! anniversary in early May. I love being part of something that sparks my creativity and hear people comment, "you MADE this?" I also enjoy sharing that passion with others in my classes! If you live anywhere in the Lewis Center, Delaware, Dublin, Powell, Westerville, Hilliard or surrounding Columbus, Ohio areas, join us! I love to meet new stamping friends. Email me for a current class schedule... I'm adding new classes all the time!
