Saturday Sketch Challenge SSC263

Good Evening Friends!

It's time for another saturday sketch challenge from your operators over at stamping 411.

This sketch is SUPER easy this week.  Do you think the sketch artist is on vacation and wants to keep it simple this week?  Hmmm, could be!    :) 

Seriously, it's the last day of vacation AND it's my birthday!  Yep, 22 years old again...  ;-) 

Besides, sometimes when it comes to card making, less is best. 

So how about some measurements?
Base: 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" scored and folded in half at 4 1/4", raspberry ripple
Layer 2: 5 1/4" x 4, whisper white
Layer 3: black 5 x 3 3/4"
Layer 4: whisper white 4 7/8 x 3 5/8"
Layer 5: is cut from layer 2  (teehee) then attached with dimensionals!

That's right, who's gonna know if you don't paint behind the toilet?  What??? Forgive me, that's a joke I use in stamp class all the time.  ~~  To make the focal point, I took layer two, whisper white and stamped the For You, then used the coordinating framelit to punch it out (with the big shot).  Then, just hid the scrap piece in between the layers. No one can see the hole back there in between the layers.  :)

The pretty ribbon has polka dots on one side and you're looking at the back side, sans polka dots.

I'm going to keep it brief tonight, as it is my last day of vacation and my family is at the pool.  (where I will be in a few minutes)!  Have a wonderful weekend!  I'll be back home and on track soon!  :)

Stampin' Love,
Selene
