Hello! We've got a great new sketch for you this week at CAS(E) This Sketch. That big layer inspired me to dig into my never-ending stash of patterned paper and put together a fun card with some color and sparkle.
I've had this patterned paper for ages and very rarely use it (I think I have a hoarding problem)! It's got a retro-modern vibe to it that I like so I took this sketch and rounded some of the edges, which to my eye gives it more of a retro feel, and used the patterned paper as a focal point. I die-cut this fantastic "joy" sentiment from silver glimmer paper and attached it at a jaunty angle! A slim Christmas sentiment stamped on white finished the look.
It's also the last challenge of the year at Just Us Girls so I wanted to play along. The theme is "anything goes" so my card fits! 😉
Thanks for stopping by! My fellow CAS(E) This Sketch teammates have made some great cards with this sketch so be sure to check them out. I hope you'll join us in the gallery!
