Saturday Sketch Challenge 178

Good Evening Friends!

I'm so happy that it's Friday! Tonight, I'm spending a little quiet time in the studio, catching up on some design work that I'm behind on.

It seems this time of year, everyone is behind on everything. Let the holiday season begin! :D

Tonight's sketch from your stampin 411 operators is a simple one! I hope you have time to make a quick card and play along with us!

I've been embossing with my club all week, and I thought that while I had my gold embossing powder out that I'd play with this vintage feeling stamp set!

Measurements
Base: 11 x 4 1/4", scored and folded in half at 5.5
Layer 2: Shimmer white 5 1/4 x 4. The upper half was embossed with the vintage wallpaper embossing folder
Layer 3: 5 1/4" x 1/2" deck the halls designer paper.
Layer 4: 2 1/4" square
Layer 5: 2" square.

I took the focal point and turned it on the diamond to add interest to the focal point. I colored with straight cherry cobbler and artichoke markers right on the image.

The cherry cobbler ribbon was attached with sticky strip. A tutorial for that may be found here.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Please check out the other operator's amazing creations over on Stamping 411.

Rubbah hugs,
Selene
