Wild About You

Here's my card for the current challenge at Freshly Made Sketches.  I stretched the square layout to a standard A2 card size for this earthy design.

I built my card on a brown card base topped with a leafy patterned panel.  To go with the earthy color scheme and patterns, I die cut a pair of leaves from green cardstock using the Wild Greenery dies from My Favorite Things.  After using two of the Pierced Circle STAX dies to create a round dark brown frame, I adhered the frame and leaves to the cardfront.  The "wild about you" sentiment from the Sweet Safari stamp set was stamped in dark brown ink on a wide kraft slanted sentiment strip die cut, then adhered to the cardfront using foam tape.   A trio of dark brown enamel dots arranged around the frame completed the design.

Materials Used:
Sweet Safari stamp set, Wild Greenery, Pierced Circle STAX, and Slanted Sentiment Strips dies (My Favorite Things); Memento Espresso Truffle ink (Tsukineko/IMAGINE Crafts); Soft Suede and Chocolate Chip cardstock (Stampin' Up!); Simply Chartreuse and Kraft cardstock (Papertrey Ink); Goldenrod 6x6 paper pad (One Canoe Two); brown enamel dots (My Mind's Eye); foam tape
