Hey there... have a card to share for a couple of challenges: ColourQ and Seize the Sketch.
This was an interesting sketch for me to work with. The little strip across the top kinda threw me off, but I think my decision to use some baker's twine instead of a strip of paper was a good one. The stamps and dies are from Clearly Whimsy Stamps (Travel 2). I just love that cute little camera... so happy it has a matching die! To keep things from bulking up too much I embossed the rectangle (Spellbinders long plain rectangle die) on my kraft cardstock instead of using a cardstock piece. The blue baker's twine isn't a super close match for the blue in the ColourQ combo, but it works! Thanks for stopping by...
Supplies: Cardstock: PTI rustic white & kraft; Stamps: Clearly Whimsy Stamps; Inks: Stampin Up! Dies: Whimsy Stamps & Spellbinders; Baker's Twine: The Twinery
