It's time for another Sketch Chalenge from the Pals Paper Arts (PPA). A shout out to the talented Pal Ann Schach for a super sketch that is sure to get your creative juices flowing. First my card.
Now the sketch.
From the time that I first saw this sketch, I planned on using the sentiment from Layering Love. It turned out to be the perfect size oval for the sketch. And with the new Layering Ovals Framelits, it was easy to create the perfect Scalloped Oval Mat. In addition, the Floral Boutique Designer Series Paper, added just the touch of elegance that I was looking for with my card.
I really like a Night of Navy/Daffodil Delight combo so that is what I decided to use. My card base is Night of Navy topped with a narrow Whisper White Mat which is ideal for showing off the gorgeous DSP. The Daffodil Delight Mat is embossed with the Sparkle Texture Impressions Embossing Folder & matted with some Night of Navy Cardstock. Did you spot the trio of hearts stamped on the inside of my card with Night of Navy Ink?
A narrow strip of Night of Navy Cardstock is embossed with the Festive Textured Impressions Embossing Folder but you have to look closely in order to see that texture. The sentiment is dressed up with a Daffodil delight Enamel Shapes Heart & a sweet bow created with the Night of Navy Solid Baker's Twine. The final touch on the front of my card is a trio of Daffodil Delight Blossoms created with the Tree Builder Punch & topped with some Night of Navy Enamel Shapes.

Jul 6, 2016 | Birthday |
Our family has lots of summer birthdays so I decided to make a few cards ahead of time. The Birthday Banners Stamp Set with the coordinating Bunch of Banners Framelits makes quick work of creating a few birthday cards.
I decided to create my own background paper using the balloon stamp from Birthday Banners. My color palette consists of Dapper Denim, Watermelon Wonder, Mint Macaron & Delightful Dijon. The balloons are stamped randomly off & on the paper to create a background dsp for my card.
The candle is stamped with Mint Macaron Ink on Whisper White Cardstock in 2 sections leaving some white space in the middle in order to make the candle extend beyond both sides of my banner. This piece with the candle is then cut with a Lots of Labels Framelit.
The banner from Birthday Banners is stamped on Whisper White Cardstock with Watermelon Wonder Ink. The sentiment on the banner was stamped with Delightful Dijon Ink. The Bunch of Banners Framelits made quick work of cutting it out. A small bow made with Thick Whisper White Twine adds the final touch. I purposely kept this card simple so that it could be used for anyone.

May this be a happy, safe & enjoyable 4th of July for each and everyone of you. A special thank you to the men & the women who serve or have served our country. I feel very fortunate to be able to celebrate our freedom and feel a special gratitude to those that make it possible. Thank you! This card is for you!
The colors for the PPA 307 Color Challenge were an inspiration for my card. Be sure to check out this color challenge. Here is the graphic for the challenge.
Although the striped dsp at the bottom of my card appears black, it is the Night of Navy Striped Pattern found in the Regals DSP Stack. Continuing with Night of Navy, I stamped the sentiment from Confetti Celebration on Whisper White Cardstock & cut it out with a Lots of Labels Framelit but trimmed the bottom straight to look more like a tag. A Real Red Star from the Brights Enamel Shapes adds a bit of color to my tag.
The Moroccan Stamp is inked with Pool Party Ink, stamped on Pool Party card stock & Heat Embossed with Clear Embossing Powder. Two more Real Red Enamel Shapes appear on the stamped image in order to complete the trio of red shapes. In addition, a strip of Real Red 3/8" Stitched Satin Ribbon tied in a knot, adds a final statement to my card.
