SFF 051812

TGIF!!! This is the last Friday of school for the year! Yea!! Only four more days! Nick is really excited! Today is also the day Sketch Frenzy Friday has a new challenge. This week's sketch is provided by Patrice Herrera. Take a look!


And here is what I came up with...


Yes. I know that it is quite a stretch. I just couldn't visualize what I would do with the three panels. So I decided to make it appear as there were three different panels. Again, this is a stretch but I do like the way it came out. I took a piece of Concord Crush and stamped the flourish from Baroque Motifs in VersaMark and embossed it with clear emboss powder. Then I stamped the other two images onto Whisper White with Peach Parfait and Pear Pizzazz and cut them out. I adhered the leaves to the flower and added a punched flower from Concord Crush using the Boho Blossoms punch and an antique brad. This is popped up onto the panel which is popped up onto the card. Then I added the greeting that was stamped in Concord Crush onto a strip of Whisper White with the end flagged. I tucked this behind the flower because I felt like that balanced the card better. So this is my take on the sketch and I do hope it inspires you to stretch yourself as well!

Thinking Baroque Motifs

Good Sunday morning! It was so nice to be able to sleep in after our long day yesterday! The boys lost their soccer game but they played awesome! The other team only had a few shots on goal but the difference was that those shots made it into the goal and in the end, that is what matters. If our boys can figure that part out, we will always win when they play like they did yesterday! Wow! It was really warm yesterday! I got my first sunburn of the year. Time to get out the sunblock. Now, this week is to be cooler and rainy. We need the moisture so I won't complain there, but I hope it doesn't get too cold. I am in the mood for some spring storms. Right now it is really blowing up something!

Today's card started from a sketch and then we took a turn and ended up here - lol! I wasn't sure if I even liked this but I didn't hate it bad enough to throw it away. So here it is for all to see and decide. Thanks so much for stopping by to take a look! I hope that you all have a super day!
