Good Morning everyone, i hope you are enjoying the long weekend.
Today im sharing a card i made for a teenage boy, its following a sketch layout that a friend set that really got my brain cells going. Ive used one of my marbled papers in blue and silver so Ive used Navy blue & Silver cardstock to go with it.
6x6 Navy cardbase. I first die cut the solid triangles from my marbled paper and the top fancy layer from silver mirror card and adhered together. I cut a peice of white linen card smaller than my card base and lightly inked in blue thru a little dots stencil. This stencil is so useful just to add a little interest but not too much. I then arranged my triangles, overlapping them slightly.
I die cut the MFT birthday sentiment die from white card, using my plain circle dies i cut a frame to fit it from navy card, cutting the middle out too. I arranged it with one of the triangles in the middle, attaching over the top with glue gel. I stamped to tiny sentiments onto white scraps and cut out, lightly inked with the little dots sentiment and attached in place with glue gel to finish.
Just a close up
This is the sketch we were set
Items Used:
Alternew shattered triangle die set
MFT circle birthday sentiment die
Spellbinders circle dies
Tiny sentiment stamps
Little dots stencil
