Sweet Stop Sketch 113

It's our Sketch with a Spin Week over on the Sweet Stop Blog. This month's "spin" is to make a circle card. Hop on over to the blog to check out the sketch...it's a cool one!



For my card, I used OCL's Sandy Sunsets. The palm tree was stamped in onyx black, I kept the die in place and sponged Tangerine Tango all around the square, and then matted it against the black CS. Pretty simple card...and I made it SUPER bright orange using some Penny Black Mix & Match CS.

Enjoy your weekend!

Stamps: OCL Sandy Sunsets Paper: PTI Vintage Cream and True Black, Penny Black Fall Festival Mix & Match CS Ink: Versafine Onyx Black, Tangerine Tango Accessories: Circle and Scallop Circle Nestabilities, Square Nestabilities, Ribbon, MFT Small Scallop Edge Die-namics

    Wow...I love how you did the sponging of orange and the palm tree in black! Gorgeous again Denise. Where do you come up with all these awesome styles and techniques. I need to hang out with you a little to get out of my little comfort zone and try new things.
