Today’s Sketch Challenge

I really like the card that I made for today’s SplitCoastStampers Sketch Challenge.

I used Purely Pomegranate, Soft Sky and So Saffon – a color combo I haven’t used before. I also used a new stamp set, Enjoy Every Moment. I received this stamp set free from Stampin’ Up! for holding a $400 workshop within two weeks after the Philadelphia Regionals in September. This is the first time I’ve used the stamp set, and although I don’t think I would have purchased it myself, I feel that I’m going to use this set quite a bit now that I have it (the set will be available in the Stampin’ Up! Spring/Summer Collection that comes out in January).

Here’s my card:

The card’s not nearly as dark as it appears in the photo – it’s a rainy day here in NJ and I had a hard time getting a good photo.

There are lots of layers on this card – I went a little nuts! There are also pop-dots under the “O” (as well as a rhinestone brad) and pop-dots under the scallop punch in the corner. I also LOVE using the new satin ribbon – it’s very elegant and rich!
