Embossed Sketch Challenge Card – Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Ink & Inspirations Blog Hop where we are being inspired by a sketch to create a card. I have used embossing folders as the focus of my design today.

 

Colours used to make this card are:

 

I created the Embossed Sketch card using the following supplies:

Pool Party card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” on the long side
Secret Sea – 5⅝” by 3⅞
Basic White – 5½” by 3¾” x 2 – one for the inside
Secret Sea – 4⅝” by ⅞” x 3
Berry Burst – 4½” by ¾”
Pool Party – 4½” by ¾”
Fresh Freesia – 4½” by ¾”
Basic White – 2¼” by 2¼”

 

I began by embossing the 3 strips of coloured card – The Berry Burst strip was embossed with the Lazy Daisy Embossing Folder, The Pool Party strip with the Turtle Textures Embossing Folder and the Fresh Freesia strip with the Lovely Stripes Embossing Folder, at an angle.

Each embossed strip was then glued to the strips of Secret Sea card. These were mounted onto one of the Basic White layer with Dimensionals.

I added the larger layer of Secret Sea to the back of the panel and wrapped the whole panel with Black Baker’s Twine. The panel was then adhered to the Pool Party card front.

The sentiment, from the Balloon Festoon stamp set was stamped on the square of Basic White card with Secret Sea ink.

On scrap Basic White card, I stamped the outline of the bobble hat in Real Red ink. I reversed the image and stamped the same Real Red ink – 2nd generation – to add colour to the hat. The gloves were stamped in the same way using Misty Moonlight ink. The images were fussy cut out.

I die cut a stitched square from the square of Basic White card and adhered it to the Real Red square. This was added to the card front on Dimensionals. The hat and gloves were then added to the raised square with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.
