Anniversary Card Sketch Challenge

Today's card was created, as a member of the Design Team, at...

 Try a Sketch on Tuesday (TSOT) Challenge #647.

TSOT is partnering with the Double Trouble Challenge #167 to celebrate their 6th Anniversary.  If you would like to play along, visit their site to check it out!

Thing 1 Trouble Maker:  Choose a Raffle Ticket for your project. The Tickets will offer a choice of four project themes - Anniversary, Father's Day, Birthday/Newborn, and Graduation.

 

Thing 3 Twisted Sister: My optional twist is to use Kraft or Kraft-type paper and/or a brown paper bag somewhere in your project.

  

Thing 2 Double Trouble: This is an option to link your project with any of DTC's previous partners using a project inspired by the TSOT Sketch. Additional details and a list of previous partners are available on the DTC Blog.

For my "Anniversary" card, I used Stampin' Up! Cheerful Daisies & Layers of Beauty Stamp Sets, Cheerful Daisies & Wildflower Designs Dies along with Wildly Flowering DSP.

Basic White was used as my card base with layers of Wildly Flowering DSP.

The daisies were stamped with Moody Mauve ink and the flower centers with Early Espresso ink and die cut.

The branches were die cut with Wild Wheat and the leaves were stamped with Mossy Meadow ink on Mossy Meadow and die cut.

The shape behind the flowers was die cut using Wildflower Designs Dies.

The sentiment was stamped with Moody Mauve ink.  I liked the shape of the photopolymer stamp, so after stamping the sentiment, the stamp was cleaned and pulled off the stamping block and placed on top of the sentiment, matching up the words. Next, I traced lightly around the stamp with a pencil and fussy cut, erasing any visible pencil lines.  The sentiment was adhered with Stampin' Dimensionals.

A strand of 2023-2025 In Color Jute Trim (Moody Mauve) was pulled apart and using one strand along with Linen Thread, tied a bow and adhered with a Mini Glue Dot beside the sentiment.

The embellishments are Adhesive-Backed Sparkle Gems.

Inside my card is DSP layered with Basic White.  A single flower was stamped with Moody Mauve ink in the lower corner and the center stamped with Early Espresso ink.

DSP was adhered on the envelope flap and trimmed.

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today.
