Fab Friday 21

Are you ready… here we go… it’s FRIDAY!!!! Wee!! Yesterday turned out to be a nice day for the golf outing. It rained a little in the middle of the day but cleared up so the golfers could finish. Dinner was great! As soon as we finished packing up it started to pour, glad it waited! I’m off to Manhattan tomorrow morning to see my friend Kim and then to Fire Island to visit some friends. A busy weekend, but a fun one.

Today’s post is my Design Team card for the Fab Friday Challenge. This time around we have a fun sketch for you…

Fab Fri 21 Sketch 6-28-2013

Do you see what I see… a frame! We all know that I’m slightly obsessed with frames lately! The base of my card is Sahara Sand Card Stock. The middle of my frame is cut out with the Squares Collection Framelits Dies and filled with a piece of paper from the Modern Medley Designer Series Paper Pack. Before I adhered it to the card I put a pice of Brushed Gold behind it that I punched out with the Artisan Label Punch. The arrow, that I cut out with the Bitty Banners Framelits, is also Brushed Gold. The greeting and the bird are from the Morning Meadow Host(ess) Stamp Set. I stamped the greeting in Basic Black and heat embossed it with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder. I used the Apothecary Accents Framelits Dies to cut it out. The bird is also heat embossed in gold and cut out with my Paper Snips. I love the black, vanilla and gold together with the sahara, and the frame… well you know how I feel about that! Thanks very much for coming by to see my Fab Friday Design Team card for the Sketch challenge. Stop by the Fab Friday blog and see what other creations the talented designers have for you and enter your card in the gallery. Maybe you can be a Fab Fave and grab our new badge! Have a great Friday! 🙂
