CAS-Colour and Sketches #12

Happy Valentine's Day my friends!

I hope you are all loved up and have a day full of hugs and kisses!!!

Today I know I should be sharing a Valentine's card but I'm guessing you have seen quite a few them over the last month. So I am going with a Birthday card instead.

This week at CAS-Colour and Sketches is our sketch challenge week. And here is the sketch we have for you:


I thought about this one for a while as I really wanted to use stamps to represent the circles. I played around with various stamps and finally went with the PTI medallion set. I recently learnt the triple time stamping technique but today I have just used double time stamping-not sure if that is a 'thing' but I tried it and liked how it looked! What do you think?


I added a die cut flower with a centre pearl to give the card an extra dimension.

I am looking forward to seeing what this sketch inspires you to make. Our DT have made some super cards using this sketch so pop over to our blog here and take a peek.

Have a fun and loving day and happy crafting!

    I'm thinking it's incredible that you were able to line up the stamps so perfectly. It is awesome. I love the flower too...it is the perfect touch.

    Sandie this is beautiful! A perfect technique for this sketch! I love that your card is still very clean with lots of white space.

    Oops Sandie, I'm very late commenting but I loved your card the moment you posted it. Love the off the edge stamping and the flower, brilliant use of the sketch too.
