Here's this month's sketch:
And here's the project it inspired:
The Perfect Pairs Photopolymer Stamp Set features cute images of some of the best things that go together and is ideal for Valentine's cards.
The cookie image from the Perfect Pairs Photopolymer Stamp Set was stamped on Basic White Cardstock four times using Tuxedo Black Memento™ Ink. The images were each coloured with Stampin' Blends (Light and Dark Pecan Pie and colour 100 from the Deep Combo Pack). The milk carton image was stamped on Basic White Cardstock twice using the same black ink. The straw was coloured using Real Red Stampin' Blends, and the edges of the cartons highlighted with Balmy Blue Stampin' Blends. The cow image was stamped in black ink on one of the cartons. Two additional cows were stamped on Basic White Cardstock using black ink. All the stamped elements were cut out using paper Snips.
A rectangle of Basic White Cardstock was embossed using the Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder and trimmed to size (3½" x 4¾"). The stamped elements were adhered directly to the embossed panel. The sentiment, from the same stamp set, was stamped on a Basic White Cardstock strip (¾" x 3½"). Both ends of a strip of Real Red Cardstock (½" x 4¼") were cut to form flags, and the strip adhered behind the stamped sentiment strip using Stampin' Dimensionals. The completed sentiment element was added to the bottom of the embossed layer.
The finished panel was added to a Balmy Blue Cardstock mat, and then adhered to a Crumb Cake folded card base.
