Stampin' Up! Greetings of the Season ~ Sketch Saturday


Hello & welcome!  Today's card was created for Sketch Saturday's Challenge 759.  This is the first day of the challenge and you have two weeks to play along.  The optional twist for this chard challenge is to feature a sentiment.


 You may have already noticed that my card doesn't look exactly like the sketch.  That is because my mind wandered a bit while I was stamping, and I ended up stamping on the wrong side of the die cut piece.  I considered starting over when I realized what I had done, but decided it was fine to just switch everything up a bit! 

After stamping my sentiment with Versamark and Heat Embossing with White Embossing Powder, the sentiment just wasn't standing out enough.  SO, I used a Small Blending Brush and added a light layer of Pretty Peacock ink around the sentiment.  Once I had the ink the way I wanted, I used a microfiber cloth to wipe the extra ink from the sentiment itself.  

I love this layout and am looking forward to making more cards with it in the future!  Maybe next time I'll pay attention and stamp on the correct side. 😉
