OCC Challenge...

It's time for another Sketch Challenge with Our Creative Corner (sketch is below) and I've made two versions this week! One is more elaborate than the other, but both work well for Birthday Cards! I pulled out my Scalloped and Plain Heart Nestabilities to fit the sketch and I just love how this simple layout can make such a pretty card!


My designer papers are from K & Company's paper stack called "Classic K" and it has beautiful floral and swirly papers in tones of green, rose and ivory! I glittered the swirls on my background paper and used the Botanical Floral punch by Martha Stewart for my strip. I added an organza bow, a decorative flower, pearls and a peel off sticker sentiment, then mounted it all to a rose card to finish it off. Card size: 4 3/4 x 6 1/4 inches


My second card has minimal embellishments and I stamped my sentiment (Inkadinkado) with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I glittered my swirly background and my floral heart, added pearls and a pretty bow to finish the card. I mounted it to an ivory card sized 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 inches.
