CardPatterns July Sketch 122 Challenge

When I saw July's sketch on CardPatterns I can't wait to play along. It's a simple sketch that has so many possibilities. I decided to make good some of my lovely BB Gabrielle scraps. Here's the sketch:

July Sketch
 Here's my interpretation, staying true to the format of a vertical long card:

Rather whimsical I think :)

Love love love the 'LOVE WISH DREAM' Tim Holtz Idealogy rubber stamp.

Another angle of the card sentiment.

This part is accented with punched edges, brown grossgarin ribbon and a vintage crochet lace ribbon. The vintage Prima flower is punched up with a coral pearl centre.

Fussy cutting the Gabrielle papers. The BG chip stickers matches them perfectly!


I always believe that the inside of a card should always be decorated somewhat as that's where the personal message comes in.

Materials used:
  • Bo Bunny Gabrielle patterned papers
  • MME Life Stories paper (craft paper base)
  • Tim Holtz Idealogy stamp & Versacolor pigment ink pad in Brown #54
  • TH Distress Ink Pad in Pumice (edges) & Tattered Rose (stamped image inside card)
  • Basic Grey Curio Chip Stickers
  • Prima vintage blooms & pearls
  • Brown grossgrain ribbon & beige lace crochet trims
Thank you for visiting! Have a lovely week ahead!
