Stamping 411 Sketch Challenge 217

This week Stamping 411 have two sketches to choose from to complete your project.  They are also offering a prize to be awarded to one of the operators picks for the week.  A great incentive to enter the challenge.

I used the pretty striped  Poppy Parade Designer paper in the Hostess Designer Series Paper Pack – In-Colour and added it to a mat of Poppy Parade card.  I stamped the image from the Lovely as a Tree stampset using Night of Navy ink onto Very Vanilla card.  I attached the image panel to a mat of Night of Navy card and added it to the  centre of the designer paper.  I wrapped the whole piece with Poppy Parade 1/2″ Stitched-Poly Ribbon and then attached it to the Sahara Sand base card.  I stamped “thinking of you” from the Three Little Words stampset using Night of Navy ink onto Very Vanilla card.  I punched a Night of Navy mat using the Scallop Oval punch and then attached the greeting to the card front. 

Here is a close up of the gorgeous tree image.  I absolutely love this stampset and I am so glad that it is included in the new catalogue which will be released on the 1st September.

Bye for now, Kris.
