Rockin' Red Rockstar

Happy Saturday morning! Before I head off to get my hair cut, I thought I'd share my card for this week’s sketch challenge at Paper Craft Planet. Kim provided us with a fun sketch incorporating a star as an image panel.

When I saw the sketch, the Rockstar set from Clear & Simple Stamps immediately came to mind because of the star panel. I’ve had this guitar patterned paper from Piggy Tales in my stash for a while and thought it would make a perfect complement to the star and the Rockstar images. The star was cut from a piece of shimmery silver paper using my Slice cutting machine. I embellished the star panel with the guitar image from the Rockstar set.

I made a few changes to the sketch. I put the sentiment on a half-oval panel, attached underneath the patterned paper strip. Since I made the panel across the cardfront a little wider than in the sketch, taking up more room than in Kim’s version of the sketch, I ended up leaving off the photo corners on the edges of the card.

I hope you’ll play along if you have a chance this weekend. And, don’t forget about the 3d challenge to make a pull-treat card. You still have a little more time to create your pull-treat card and upload it to the PCP gallery for a chance to win the Sweet Tooth set from Clear & Simple Stamps. You can find more info about the challenge in my post here from earlier this week or here on PCP.
