I have to tell you, I am REALLY enjoying the sketches that Julie makes up for us Divas to use! I look forward to them! It is so helpful to have a sketch to get you started when your mojo is hiding somewhere!
So here is the Diva Coffee Break Designs sketch for this week:
I needed a thank you card for a good friend who is also a customer (a very good customer), and I wanted to step it up a little, so this was a perfect sketch to use for my fall "grateful for you" card:
I stamped the Autumn Harvest images in Stazon on watercolor paper, colored them with Earth Elements reinkers and my aquapainter, then cut them out and popped them up on a textured Always Artichoke panel that was stamped with the leaf image, the little dot from Itty Bitty Backgrounds and then sponged. What a mouthful! The panel was then mounted on a piece of distressed-edge Chocolate Chip cardstock and embellished with some twill & a corduroy button. The sentiments, from Falling Leaves, were stamped on Thoroughly Modern DP and Sahara Sand; vintage brads finish it off. It's a side-fold card, so that makes it a bit unique, too! Thanks for visiting today and be sure to check out what the other Divas have designed! You can play too! There is a Mr Linky at the DCBD blog and we would love to have you share your creation with us!
