There is my take on this months sketch! Love me some pink fresh and that is what card was made from products from Pink Fresh. Stamp, Stencil and Die "Simplest Gesture". Background inked using Pink Fresh layering stencils "Kaleidoscope". popped layers up to make this card very dimensional. Added some clear gems and a sentiment stripe for the win.
Sketch
Welcome to May's Stick it Down Challenge! I love it when cards come together and what's even more fun is when you spend a crafty day creating all kinds of jelly prints and you find cool ways to use them!
Here is this months Sketch
AND here is my take on it!
As stated above the base was already made from a previous jelly print day but I did add even more layers using a flower boarder stencil and a Leaf Stencil. Colors used were TH distress oxides Rustic Wilderness and Tattered Rose. I then used pencil crayons to enhance the shading of those two colors. I cut stitched squares from black, inked green card stock and another previous jelly print of pinks. The silver letters came from left overs in my stash and the flowers were cut from Vellum and the same pink jelly printed background as the squares. I layered the vellum and pink flowers together and added silver jewels from Pink Fresh. I used a stamp from my stash to stamp out Happy Birthday to you.
Excited for March sketch reveal and my take on it. Took several days to pull together as I knew I wanted "rainbow" but other then that I wasn't sure. I LOVE how it turned out!
Here's the Sketch AND....
Here is my take!
First I started with a stencil from Pink Fresh Studio's called Geo Arch and using the following colors created a wonderful base directly on the card- Distress Oxides in Fired Brick, Spiced Marmalade, Fossilized Amber, Peeled Paint, Uncharted Mariner, Seedless Perserves.
I then cut out a panel from Pink Fresh Stitched Scallop Rectangle, backed it with 29lb vellum (as I wanted to still see the design behind) and popped it up on foam tape to create a shaker element.
I used dies from Concord & 9th Oh Hey You stamp and dies set; Hero Arts YAY! Birthday Bundle; Woodware Bog Bubble Craft Die and WR Memory Keepers 1" and 5/8" circle punch for the other elements.
With so much color going on in the backgroun I decided to leave some elements as Black and White which I loved in the end.
Stamped a big "HOORAY" on the inside with some washi tape and also used the same washi to decorate the envelope a tad.

Love is in the air!
This one had a few extra steps but so worth the effort. First I cut out the hearts using a stitched heart in two sizes for the top piece. For the bottom piece I white heat embossed a back ground word stamp, making sure to mask off the small heart spaces and then using 3 shades of distress oxide ink (spun sugar, worn lipstick and picked raspberry, I blended the colors down the page. Using a slightly damp cloth I wiped off the ink from the embossed writing. I then attached the top piece to the bottom and popped up the smaller heart using pop dots. The 2 leaves were cut from two different types of silver foil and the love die using black card stock. Added a stamped "you" to the small heart. Add a few dots cut out from the left over glimmer card stock.
