Hopping through some blogs this morning I found that the
Simon Says Stamp Challenge
had a sketch.
I don't usually do sketches but this one struck something in me so off I went and this is what I did...
I made a gate fold card.
I used the coredinations paper, my kids got me for my birthday, in my cuttlebug, then sanded it to bring out the core a bit.
I added a little bit of rusty hinge distress ink on the edges as well as on the stamp.
It's a bit hidden but there is a piece of ribbon across the front of the card tucked under the pp's, I was surprised to see that I had a ribbon that matched this paper so well!
I am entering this in the...
Simon Says Stamp - Follow Dawny's Sketch challenge,
Shabby Tea Room - April Showers challenge,
Fashionable Stamping - Embossing
and
Sugar Creek Hollow - Fancy Folds challenge.
