MTSC55 - Celebrate Your Day!

Hey guys... Happy Monday! :) I don't know about you, but I am *tired* today. LOL, maybe that explains my flub with today's card.

I had planned on making a card for Mercy's Tuesday Sketch Challenge after I dropped my daughter off at school. We get up, get ready and head out the door, and all is well. I stop by the post office, come home, take the pup out for a quick walk and am ready to get down to business. So far so good!

I'm stingy with my toner, so normally I just make a quick sketch of the sketch, but I uhh, totally messed it up and didn't realize it until *after* I made the card and uploaded it to Flickr! The green CS is actually about half the size it's supposed to be... LOL, how does that happen??

Have a great one. :)

Instructions

• Trim kraft CS to standard A2 card base.
• Use border punch to punch out scallop edge on brown CS.
• Trim pink CS to 1 1/4" x 4 1/4", stamp with damask image in white ink, and adhere brown scallop strip.
• Trim green CS to 1 5/8" x 4" and stamp with polka dots in green ink.
• Add strip of brown ribbon to green cs, then adhere to card base.
• Adhere pink CS to card base.
• Cut out a circle (I hand cut a circle using the inside of a roll of Scor-tape as my template), stamp with pink damask image and brown sentiment, then distress outer edge.
• Adhere main image to card base, and embellish with bow and rhinestones.
