Sketch and Stash Challenge #2


I know I have tweaked the sketch a little but I stuck to it as much as I could!! The idea of this fun blog is to challenge you to use stash that you’ve never got round to using! I’m very guilty of this – especially with paper and card. I still need to take a paracetemol before I cut up a piece of Bazzil!!
The stamps I used to stamp out “LOVE” are a set I won at the Wirral all day crop over a year ago!! I thought I would never get round to using them as thet’re a bit flowery for me. Now that I have got them out – I love them!! They’re by All Night Media by the way. The other thing I have used here which I was holding on to is the ribbon. I hate using my ribbon and I could probably reach from here to the moon with the amount I’m hoarding!! Anyway, enjoyed this challenge – can’t wait for the next one!!
The card is made from acetate and white card. I have used some flourish stamps on the background as my base layer. The shapes (what are these shapes called by the way – anyone know? They’re everywhere right now) – are cut on my cricut and layered up at various sizes. One pair is stuck on the inside the other is on the outside!! Does that make any sense?? I have added just a little glitter (can’t help it) to the lettering.
