Blogger Challenge: Week 133

This week’s blogger challenge is a sketch provided by our leader, Lisa. I had a hard time with this one at first. It seemed like all the image and sentiment pairs I wanted to use were too big to fit across the card.

I settled on this pair of images from Unity’s Everyday Adorable kit. I stamped the key image in black ink on a scrap of gray cardstock and carefully cut it out, then attached it to a cream panel. I layered the panel on a silver mat, then on a gray one.

I covered a gray card base with some pretty striped paper from SEI’s Juliette line. The paper is pearly and shimmery and so pretty! I cut another strip of the paper, flipped it over to the reverse side, and placed it across the card base, then added a big wide pink silk bow beneath the dotted strip.

The kit’s “key 2 my heart” sentiment just fit next to the key. It’s stamped in black ink. I stamped it a second time on a scrap of pink and cut out the inside of the heart and attached it to the cardfront for some contrast.
