SUNDAY SKETCH & STAMP #12 - "Barb's Sketch"


Hi Girls: Well, I thought I would take a stab at SS&S this week. The sketch is a nice one to work with and was designed by Barb at "Made For Keeps". My card is approx. 5 x 7", the gold piece the flower is on, I ran through the Cuttlebug in the Distressed Stripes folder. The Poinsettia was stamped 6 times (gold powder & embossed) and I cut out layers and built it up. The bow is some ribbon I got off of a Christmas gift last year. I used 3 red buttons and one gold button brad for embellies. The greenery around the bow and the holly in the corner was cut on my Cricut. "Season's Greetings" is a gold sticker. The background paper was made by a friend in PSP and I had it printed out so thought I would use it. Hope you like it and thanks for dropping by.
