Stampin! with Jaydee

Hi Everyone.  Happy Wednesday.

Retrosketches has a great challenge this week.  As it is their one year anniversary the challenge is to use any one of their sketches from the last 52.  I had seen this one recently and had wanted to play with it, but only saw the sketch about two weeks after the challenge.  When I saw the challenge this week, well, it was my opportunity to finally use it!

I really think it is such a cool sketch.  I wanted to keep with the floral theme, but go in a different direction.  I pulled out a Christmas set and decided to make a card that was a winter themed birthday card.

here's what I did

I masked off a 1" area and stamped the holly image on both the top and bottom.  I then used my scoring board to create a horizontal score line above and below where the sentiment would be stamped.   Once the sentiment was in place, I took my Cherry Cobbler dazzling details and used them to make the berry dots shimmery, just to add a little glimmer and dimension. 

As always, thank you for stopping by my blog.  You know I appreciate your visits and your comments.  Warm hugs and prayers for those of you who need a little lift tonight.  I'll be back on Friday with another card.

Hugs

Jaydee
