Blooming phrases Storybook Moments Thanks Card - Cards TV Mary's Sketches #1

 Good Morning Everyone,

So in an attempt to keep me creating and making things I've set myself up with a little Challenge. 

A fabulous lady called Mary has a blog called Cards TV and she releases sketches. Now, if you have been following me for some time you may remember #33sketches - a mini series Donna, Karen and I did a few years ago. Well, this is that same set of sketches, except now Mary is up to sketch number 64 I think. So there's plenty for me to go at.

Following sketch layouts is a great way to keep up motivation, and also maybe push yourself out of your usual format. I'm really looking forward revisiting some of the earlier sketches, and creating for the newer ones too.

Today's card uses the Storybook Moments DSP and the Blooming phrases Stamp Set which are both current Online Exclusives

---------------------------------------------

Take the Pecan Pie Card Stock and fold along the score line to create your card base, adding the Very Vanilla card stock piece to the inside and the larger piece of DSP to the card front.

Layer the remaining pieces of DSP to the coordinating Pecan Pie mat layers. Adhere the rectangular piece to the card front off to the left, then add the more square piece with the squirrel image dimensionals  towards the right, overlapping the rectangle a little.

On a scrap of Very Vanilla stamp the Thanks sentiment from Blooming Phrases in Pecan Pie ink. The image has a long line after the word, so I used this as a stalk, and added the ears of grain to the end. Trim this piece down and layer onto a mat layer of Pecan Pie and add along the bottom of the card front.

I hope you enjoyed my card today - I had a lot of fun creating it and look forward to sharing more sketches with you.
