Here is the sketch we were challenge to follow.
I chose to use the Layering Leaves, which is a Million Dollar Sales Achiever Rachel Tessman's stamp set.
I decided to try this layout in two directions; vertical and horizontal.
A close look at the card and I dare say I nailed this sketch challenge. The strip with the sentiment on it. Then above and below the greeting is a cluster of foliage. My added detail is the background stamping I did as well with the leaves in a lighter color.
Now the hard part is knowing which card you like better.
Vertical (above) or Horizonal (below).
I love them BOTH and can't wait to make more cards with this layout!

Such a pretty and elegant design for your cards! This stampset is indeed perfect for it!
ReplyDeleteLayering Leaves has been one of my surprise favorite sets, and the way you showed how this sketch can be turned either way with spectacular results will help stampers to "branch out"!
ReplyDeleteAs always, you did an amazing job and I love how you showed two different ways to do it.
