Time for another RetroSketches card. The sketch was based on THIS amazing card by Laurie Wilson. I just love using kraft, white and red together for Christmas project so today's card features these colours. Playing with saddle stitch ribbon is so much fun, I find it so easy to create a bow and it doesn't matter if the ribbon keeps flipping over.
All Supplies are from Papertrey Ink unless otherwise noted:
Cardstock: Kraft
Patterned paper: ornaments (Very Merry Echo Park)
Stamps: Framed Out #9(PTI) Tiny Flakes (Hero Arts)
Ink: Fresh Snow, True Black
Dies: Framed Out #9, Limitless Layers
other: foam tape, pure poppy saddle stitch ribbon

ReplyDeleteI absolutely adore your CAS take on this sketch, and the big bow is to die for!
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job of putting your own twist on this sketch, Tracey! I love how you used a circle instead, and that your little sparkles are in place of the music, it looks great stamped on kraft!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty. Love the color combination. So sorry I never got that framed out #9 sret.
ReplyDeleteFabulous take on the sketch! Beautiful bow!
ReplyDeleteI had no idea this ribbon had a name ... thanks for the education (I love it too!) And thanks for letting me know about the dryer sheets. Somewhere this was buried deep in my brain from when I used to stamp 15 years ago and you totally uncovered it. I'm curious if that works better than the corn starch. Will have to test it out.
ReplyDeleteLove how you used the patterned paper with ornaments for this die ... looks like the wreath is decorated!
