We have a sketch challenge for our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop today.

I began with a Very Vanilla panel run through the Basics 3D Embossing Folder (Cross Hatch) from the ONLINE EXCLUSIVES and added it directly to a Very Vanilla card base. I cut a piece of the Earthen Elegance DSP and added it to a Copper Clay panel, put dimensionals on the back and attached as shown. Using the Sending Smiles Dies, I die cut the sentiment in two parts: Very Vanilla for the background and Copper Clay for the word itself and added these together with liquid glue. I added a strip of the Satin-Edged Ribbon in gold to the DSP then added the sentiment over the top of it with dimensionals. For added glam I attached the Pastel Adhesive-Backed Sequins in gold and the card front was complete.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the flower head in Lemon Lolly ink, the leaves in Granny Apple Green and the floral center in Copper Clay – all part of the Sending Smiles stamp set.. The sentiment is also from Sending Smiles stamp set and is stamped in Copper Clay ink as well. This was all done on a Very Vanilla panel, added to a Copper Clay piece just slightly larger, then into the inside of the card. DONE!

A friend of mine is getting ready to have a knee replacement; has struggled for the past year with back & knee pain – and just needs to know she’s loved and we’re here for her. Special cards help and she so appreciates them.
