So as I was browsing tonight I saw that Michelle Wooderson posted a sketch challenge on her blog. Since I was not "partying" tonight, I decided to give the sketch a whirl. I was totally in to my scraps tonight so everything on this card was in one of my many sized scrap bins (even the card base!). This is kinda neat because Nichole Heady has added a Mr. Linky to her blog today allowing us to link up cards made from scraps ...head on over and see who else has been using scraps!!
I decided to go with a valentines card because I found that scrap of pink polka dots with the pink stripe running through them. Actually, it is a piece of packaging from one of my past Papertrey Ink sets (I have no idea which one, I just always keep bits and pieces of the packaging if I think I might use it some time down the road). I knew the piece would be perfect punched into a heart!!
The rest is pretty obvious. I did have to use my Copic marker to get the pink mat as I did not have a piece of scrap that matched the pink of the polka dots on the heart.
Supplies: Stamps - Basic Backgrounds:Retro, Out on a Limb (Papertrey Ink), Paper - Select White, Kraft, Bitty Dots (Papertrey Ink); Ink - Chocolate Chip (Stampin' Up!); Other - marker (Copic), heart punch (Marvy), dimensionals, brown satin ribbon (Michaels), crochet yarn colored with pink copic marker.
Have a great evening!!
