Card Sketch Weekly # 274
This weeks card sketch is a brilliant design that can be turned
as you can see in the photos posted below.
I had originally designed this card to go horizontally,
but the more I looked at it I really like it to go vertical instead.
I wanted to share both photos of this card sketch design layout just to highlight
that just by turning the base it changes the whole card and in my sample this really
comes to life just by turning the sketch vertical it .
It really got me thinking what do I have in my supply that could go vertical,
I knew there were no stamped greeting that stamped vertical
at least not in my stamp room .
I immediately thought of the pirate ship
from the On The Ocean Bundle # 160775 .
Dawn’s Side Note :
I also want to clarify the Smoky Slate strip started out at 1-1/4″ x 4-1/4″
but then I cut the flagged end and that made it shorter .
I know it is smaller that the 4-1/4″ length in the photos but, that is the length I started out with.
The more I got everything out and did all the
die cutting my excitement grew knowing
it was going to be so super cute !
Here is what I did to create movement in those
Crumb Cake Cardstock #120953 sails.
I embossed the sails with the
Painted Texture 3D embossing folder # 154317
and then used a Sponge Dauber #133772
to add Crumb Cake Classic Ink #147116.
Sponged over the embossed edges making sure to hit and miss the embossed areas,
I didn’t want it all over plus this made it a aged / pirate ship
look that I was trying to achieve.
I used the same embossing folder for the Smoky Slate Cardstock # 131202
background layer to add a bit of texture .
I cut the waves from the On The Ocean Dies # 160774
with Night of Navy Cardstock #100867
and also a strip of By The Bay Designer Paper # 160434.
As much as I love this whole On The Ocean Bundle # 160775
it was the On The Ocean dies # 160774 that had me so excited about
building this whole pirate ship scene to this card.
I really love that way it turned out !
To really top off this great card, I added the sweet greeting which is in the
On The Oceans Stamp Set # 160772.
I have all the items used on today’s card listed below .
