Paper Craft Crew Sketch Challenge #11

Hey everyone! How are we today? Hopefully all is well, it’s Wednesday so we are halfway there! Still gloomy here on Long Island, I think today is supposed to be the last of it! I can’t wait to see the sun again! 🙂

Today’s post is for this week’s Paper Craft Crew Challenge. This week we have a sketch for you…

I thought Holiday card at first and then I decided that since I have been having so much fun with Halloween I’d do one of those instead! The base of my card is Tangerine Tango Card Stock. I used a piece of Howlstooth & Scaringbone Designer Series Paper for the background. The band across the middle is made using the Etruscan Elegance Jumbo Stampin’ Around Wheel, unmounted and stamped in Basic Black on Very Vanilla. I used the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch with Tangerine Tango and cut it down the middle and adhered it to the back of the band with 2-Way Glue before adhering to the card with SNAIL. The stamped image is from the Toxic Treats Stamp Set and is stamped in Basic Black on Very Vanilla and cut out with the Labels Collection Framelits Dies. I put a piece of Tangerine Tango punched out with the 2 1/2″ Circle Punch and adhered that to some Basic Black that I cut out with the Delicate Doilies Large Sizzlit Die. They are all mounted to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. The greeting is also from the Toxic Treats Stamp set, stamped in Basic Black and I flagged the ends with my Paper Snips before adhering that to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. I really love the Howlstooth & Scaringbone DSP and the Etruscan Wheel breaks up the pattern and coordinates great with the Toxic Treats Stamp Set. I hope that enjoyed this week’s Paper Craft Crew Sketch Challenge card. Click on over and see what the other talented ladies have come up with this week and post your own card.
