When I saw new sketch from CTS I knew I would be making something with it and I almost went with a literal interpretation of the sketch... i.e. to use fishtail banners. But then I stopped myself and decided to think outside the box a bit more. After trying one idea and rejecting it I remembered all the buttons I had and my idea was born. I adhered the yellow and aqua buttons, then the sentiment strip and finally the red button. After I was done I felt that the card was just a bit too simple and so I decided to ink up the sentiment using red, yellow and aqua inks, trim out the three words you see and adhere them with foam dimensionals. I think it provides that little "something extra" the card needed.
Thanks for stopping by...
