Stamping 411 Sketch Challenge #230

Hey Everyone!!!
Hope you are all having a fantastic week! I know I am.
It’s time for another sketch challenge from Stamping 411 sure hope you will take the time to visit or even play along. It really is fun seeing everyone’s take on a fun sketch. Speaking of fun sketches….here it is….

….and my interpretation…..
CTC #7 sketch 230 and door card 002
Isn’t this a fun fold? I cut my Vanilla Base to 4 1/4 x 11 and scored at 2 1/4 x 7 1/2.  I added some Soft Suede to the 2 1/4 inch section cut to 2 1/8 x 4 1/8…then added my very favorite DSP Mocha Morning cut to 2 x 4 and added to the bottom or the card. Oh before I mounted it I added a double loop bow using the Crum Cake Seam binding.
The top of the card houses a Embossed piece of Vanilla that has been run through the Big Shot with my Fav embossing folder Vintage Wallpaper. Love it!!!
Now the easy part…..cut two circles using the two circle dies….can’t get much easier than that. One in Soft Suede the # 1/2” circle and one in Vanilla in the 3” circle.
Stamp the Vanilla Circle with the image from Happiness shared in Soft Suede and color in with your aqua painter using the Watercolor Crayons. I then added one single pearl in the center.
Here is how the card opens…..hope you like it.

GORgeous! I love your clean style, Lee, and I'm learning to let the stamped image speak for itself on white from you. Very, very nice! TFS, Celia
