Weekly Sketch Challenge

Happy Wednesday! Today is sketch challenge day! For this challenge, you need to make a Slim Line Card and follow the sketch. You can find more Information for my weekly sketch challenge on my Facebook Group Page

All week I will be showcasing slim line cards on My Facebook Page . So I thought it would be a perfect time to do a slim line card for the sketch challenge. 

I used the very cute Easter Friends stamp set.

Supplies used:

Thick White CS

Pattern Party DSP

Blushing Bride CS

Basic White CS 

So Saffron CS 

Pick a Banner Punch

Momento Tuxedo Black ink 

Granny Apple Green ink

Blend Markers: So Saffron, Pumpkin Pie, Gray Granite, Pool Party 

Bumblebee gingham ribbon

Matte Dots

Measurements:

Card base 8 1/2 X 7 scored @ 3 1/2

DSP 8 1/2 X 3 1/2

Square mats Blushing Bride CS 2 3/8 X 2 3/8

                       Basic White CS 2 1/4 X 2 1/4

Sentiment tag 3/4 punched on each end with pick a banner punch

Here's a couple other Slim Line cards I've made

This last card is a mini slim line card. I like the Mini even better than the regular slim line 🙂
