CAS(E) this Sketch #23



I have a card for the newest CAS(E) this Sketch challenge.
I have a feeling that this is going to be a popular sketch.  I was inspired this week by Kim Singdahlsen's one layer card using the sentiment as the accent. It was also an opportunity to finally use my Fiskars stamp press, it made lining up the diagonal lines super easy. I may end up playing some more with this sketch, it may be my favourite so far.






All supplies are from Papertrey Ink unless otherwise noted.

Cardstock:  White, Simply Chartreuse
Stamps: Background Basics: Circles, Background Basics: Super Stripes, Natural Beauties
Ink:  Hawaiian Shores, Simply Chartreuse, Summer Sunrise

Super take on the sketch. It did not even occur to me to make it one layer--I guess I didn't look too hard at the samples (except the one with the owl). Love these patterns and colors together, and your stamping is just perfect.

LOVE the colors, Tracey! And I have to say that this sentiment is awesome here. I always look at those squarely shaped sentiments and think they need to go on a diecut, but you've shown they do not! Perfect!
