Got my Papertrey Ink order this morning and made this quick and simple card using a sketch from Chapter 6 in the awesome, awesome Go to Sketches special issue from Papercrafts. I stayed true to the sketch and used stitching in lieu of another panel. Ok, so I didn't line up the stamp so well. I'm blaming it on the Lemon Tart ink--it was hard to see through the acrylic block!
Thanks for dropping by!
Supplies: All from Papertrey Ink unless otherwise noted...Kraft and white cardstock, pure poppy button, lemon tart pigment ink, sentiment from Enjoy the Ridge, A Little Argyle stamp set. Black ribbon is not PTI (not sure of the brand). Memento Tuxedo black ink.
I never would have been able to tell! Your card is awesome!!
ReplyDeleteOMGoodnessss!!! This is simple yet GORGEOUS!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteOhhh and how I LOVE when I get a package from Papertrey! :)
Hugs!
Great job! I love this!! Great sketch you used too! Can't wait to get my set!
ReplyDeleteLove your card and I'm so jealous you got your order already. I can't wait to play with this set.
ReplyDeleteThis is great! Love the craft paper, and the stitching. I also really like that the stamp doesn't line up perfectly! Great job!
ReplyDeleteOoo, Annie, thats nice! You always have such pretty cards and take good pics of them too!
ReplyDeleteOoo Annie, Very pretty! You always have such pretty cards. I'm jealous of your new Argyle arrival! Can't wait to get mine!
ReplyDeleteI like this card very much..don't use yellow all that often. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the argyle! Awesome card, girl!
ReplyDeleteThat Lemon Tart ink actually stamped better than I would have thought. I tossed my old one - need to try the new one, I guess. That thread matches perfectly...and I love the lil' pop of red.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Love that sketch and the colors--that pop of red is perfect! Mine came today, too--can't wait to get a chance to play with it!
ReplyDeleteAnnie, I really like this. The stitching adds some spunk and the colors are festive. I think this is a great design for a masculine card. And isn't that Papercrafts mag just the best!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I love the color combo and you made a very awesome Argyle! (I stink at making my own backgrounds...lol).
ReplyDeleteAnnie, great job! I love these CAS cards more and more! I admire the zig zag stiching you did---I'm a sewer and I'm still scared of sewing on cards and messing them up! LOL!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog frequently and saying such sweet comments! I appreciate it so much!
Have a great day!
You always make such awesome cards! I love your style!
ReplyDeleteLove it! The color combo is so fresh! Love it to pieces. And the touch of red in the button, very cool!
ReplyDeleteThis is great! Of all the sets I got, I cannot wait to play with my argyle set the most! Love the *pop* of poppy with the one button - super fun!
ReplyDeleteLove everything about it!! Great job!
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome! All you gals I know in blog-land and your stitching skills.....I am always always jealous! I love the extra pop it gets. And the red button with the yellow background is fabulous! Have fun playing with all your new goodies!
ReplyDeleteLove it!! This is an awesome card!! Love the stitching!
ReplyDeleteYour card is so "You" and you know I love your style...... I love it, it is awesome....
ReplyDeleteHarriet
What a great idea to use stitching instead of another layer. It really does add depth and texture! Great card!!
ReplyDeleteI love your argyle background in Lemon Tart....I wouldn't have noticed the non-lined up stamps! It gives it character! Now, I have to buy Lemon Tart!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card! Looove the colors and the stitching border is awesome. Wish my stamp sets arrive soon!
ReplyDeleteLove it! How did I miss all these posts???!!! Great addition of the poppy button too :>)
ReplyDeleteThis card is gorgeous. Love your colors. Note to self, must get lemon tart. Great job.
ReplyDeleteGreat card, and beautiful colors. Another stamp set I have been waiting for.
ReplyDeleteLove the stitching and the argyle!
ReplyDeleteThat stitching is fabulous! I love it with the argyle (I love argyle any color, any style)
