CAS Colours & Sketches challenge #541 sketch

   hello crafters!

The new sketch challenge at CAS colours and sketches was designed by Suzy, and she has asked for a frame as part of the design.  I ended up flipping the design vertically and horizontally.


The background panel was die cut along the lower edge, and I used a similar die cut for the frame. This was die cut again on some ink smooshed card to create the frame insert. The flowers were die cut from ink smooshed card which also had some copper wax smoothed on it, then arranged with some twine to hold them together.  The sentiment was stamped on the same card, then die cut and adhered with foam squares.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. We'd love to see your card in the gallery!


  • dies: Alexandra Renke frame rectangle, slide frame vertical, artist flower set 06, edge cutting set
  • stamps: Gummiapan happy birthday
  • inks: speckled egg, kitsch flamingo, shaded lilac, black soot distress oxides
