Hi everyone! Happy Wednesday! Here is my card for today's Sketch Challenge on SCS, SC197.
Wow...this sketch kicked my butt!! This is the fourth attempt at this sketch that you see here...the other three attempts have landed in the garbage pile!!!
I think I have over pierced with my template, and can no longer seem to get a straight line, which totally drives me NUTS!!!
I went with a masculine look for this card, and I also made it a birthday card, since I never seem to have enough on hand when I need them. The DSP is Urban Garden and the sentiment is from Upsy Daisy. I stamped the grass from Inspired By Nature behind the sentiment in Kiwi Kiss & Baja Breeze.
Thanks SO much for stopping by...I think it's time for me to go to bed!!! LOL!
Recipe:
Stamps: Upsy Daisy & Inspired By Nature
Paper: Basic Grey, Kiwi Kiss, Whisper White & Urban Garden DSP
Ink: Basic Grey, Kiwi Kiss & Baja Breeze
Accessories: Paper Piercing Tool & Template, Baja Breeze Striped Ribbon, Earth Elements Brads & Dimensionals
Love your title....now that song is in my head, LOL! Perfect masculine card.
ReplyDeleteWell, for all the trouble it gave you it turned out fabulous!! Great masculine card....
ReplyDeleteJodi this is so great! I love how it turned out. My template always moves too - can't stand it!
ReplyDeleteBut the card is so very pretty, definitely worth the effort! Oh, and I have had to invest in a second piercing mat... yuppers, the first one is happily enjoying its retirement! :)
ReplyDeleteAll your efforts were soooo worth it! I love this awesome card, Jodi! GREAT JOB!
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome girlfriend!!! My template is on its last leg too, I am replacing it on my next order!!
ReplyDeleteYou're wrong, sweet lady! 4th time's a CHARM! This is gorgeous. I love the sleek, classy style of this. Really, it's just beautiful! I love all of your piercing and I'm dying to get that grass!
ReplyDeleteI think it's fantastic....would never have dreamed it gave you so much trouble!
ReplyDeleteJodi, your post title made me LOL! I am having the same problem with BOTH of my piercing templates. Do you think that means we pierce too much???....NAH! Love the end result of your struggles...one beautiful card!
ReplyDeleteJodi this is just totally beautiful! Sorry it took you so long to get there, but it is stunning!
ReplyDeleteYour card is wonderful! I really like the clean look using the designer papers and I love how you knotted and attached your ribbon!
ReplyDeleteI guess 4th times a charm because this is gorgeous!!!!
ReplyDeleteHey, this is gorgeous, girl! Can you grab those tossed attempts outta the trash and send em to me!! LOL (I'm just kidding) One person's junk is aonther's treasure and anything you create is a treasure to me!!! :) And that I'm not kidding about! I love this card!
