STAMPlorations sketch #19

Time for another one. No, not a drink, a sketch! Sketch Challenge #19 over at STAMPlorations.


Pretty generic. I kept it generic, used up some PP and even matted my focal panel. Wow, that's pretty mainstream for me!


Wanted to keep it masculine again. Stamped the wonky cake from Sketched: Birthday Cake in gray and then the sentiment from Sketched: Simple Gift in black over it. Five times. Added a black mat under it. And a die cut "you" per the sketch since I'd already included a few sentiments ;)

I covered the front of my cardbase with digi PP from Melstampz and a strip of chartreuse digi PP from All About Scrapping.

Join us. The challenge is open until September 12. The winner of the sketch challenge gets to pick three digi products from All About Scrapping and a guest designer spot too. And if you enter both sketch challenges  and the monthly challenge in September, you're in the running for a random extra prize too!


Supplies for happy birthday you:
Paper:  CS Bringmann, star PP Melstampz, grunge paper PP All About Scrapping
Stamps: STAMPlorations
Ink : Hero Arts, Versafine
Tools: you die Simon Says Stamp
Other:

What a cool masculine card, Maria! Great idea to stamp the cake with grey and then sentiments on top of it with black... I love the look! xxx

Pretty - I like the subtle cake image under the Happy Birthday sentiments! Cool how you managed to keep it kind of CAS despite all the patterns!

A most excellent masculine card, Maria. The cake over-stamped with the sentiment is brilliant, as is the paper combination. Fabulous take on the sketch, and one super cool card!

Hi Maria. Love this fresh masculine look, it feels bright and airy! Great idea to use the wonky cake as BG for the repeat stamping of the sentiment. Have a fabulous day! Hugs Monika xxx
