Hello everyone. Von Marie @vonmariedesign here today taking over the blog and I’m so excited about our New challenge Winter Knits #IB370 and we have a fun New Card Sketch for you. If you are New to this challenge it’s really easy you can be inspired by the photo, card sketch, or both. Link up your card to the linky on the Inspired by…challenge blog.
Okay let’s get started:
I was first inspired by the lovely photo. I love knit hats and especially in the Winter. I don’t own a knit hat with these colors but now it’s on my wishlist. Next, I was inspired by the card Sketch. I love the simplicity of it. On my card, I used 2 stencils from A Colorful Life Designs (use VonFan10) called Scandinavian Quilt 6×6 and I ink blended this stencil first for my background using white cardstock with Pinkfresh Studio ink cubes in Blue Jay, Warm Buff, and Slumber. Next stencil I used Cozy Knit 6×6 and used Blue jay and Warm Buff inks on Kraft cardstock. I trimmed both my background and Kraft cardstock. My background is 4 1/4 x 5 1/2. I placed a strip of white stenciled cardstock in the center of my Kraft to mimic the card sketch.
I also used a retired stamp and coordinating die set from Reverse Confetti and these knit hats were perfect I think. I stamped my images with the same ink colors. I love the strings and pom pom. I inked the eggs of my Kraft hardtack with Warm Buff ink. I glued everything to a A2 top folding Kraft card base and popped up 1 knit hat with foam tape. Since my hats have sentiments it made this card even easier. I had fun with this challenge and I cannot wait to see how you are inspired…
Crafty Hugs,
Von Marie
