More FTL 47 Samples!

As promised, here are a few more cards that follow the sketch pretty much exactly.

First some dimensions:

• Standard card size- 4.25x5.5
• Patterned paper piece- 3x4.5
• Circle or Oval (without scallops)- 1.5 diameter or 1.75 x2.25 diameter
• Sentiment tab- about .5 and as long as you need to fit the words
• Bottom Scallops- 4.5 x almost .25

First up is a Congratulations card. I wanted to use the star in Everyday Classics, and it seemed like "way to go" kind of image. I am really loving this yellow circle background from Good Morning Sunshine. I'm a bit sad to see it being retired.

Next up is a Father's Day card. I figured I should make a few before tomorrow... I can't believe I only noticed this now, and I'm sure others have noticed, but this leaf stamp from a few SABs ago totally matches the new leaf die cut. It's almost an exact match! *I just wanted to add: I didn't actually try to cut it out with the die. I still cut it out by hand* And that means that it coordinates quite nicely with the Walk in the Park paper. I suspect I'll be pairing the two items together quite a bit now.

Supplies: Stamps: Everyday Classics, Past Sell-a-bration 2006 set (found it: Best Blossoms), Men of Life, Congratulations from MSE! Ink: Old Olive, Kiwi Kiss, Orangerie Paper: Walk in the Park, Good Morning Sunshine, Old Olive, Spring Moss, Summer Sunrise, Pumpkin Pie Accessories, etc.: Scalloped scissors, punch, and dies cut, pop dots, button and string

FTL47 Sending a happy Hello

This card actually meets two SCS challenges in addition to Natasha's FTL#47. This is the inspiration piece that I chose for the Inspiration challenge and can be found here: http://www.bugalookids.com/product_p/chloe.htm This week's Ways to Use it challenge, WT223 was to use text on your card. The image is from a Making Memories set and it had the text as part of the image. I clear embossed it and cut it out. I used an Ornare piercing template to make the stitched leaf and flourish like the shoes. I realized after i was finished that I forgot the little circles or scallops on the bottom edge of the sentiment - oops! Supplies: Stamps - Making Memories, PaperTrey; Ink - Versafine Onyx Black; Paper - PaperTrey Stampers Select, unknown purple and black; Misc - Button, Clear EP, Ornare Piercing Template, Signo gel pen, MS Lace Border punch.

FTL 47!

So, it's time for another sketch! I deviated a bit from the sketch, I changed it to a vertical orientation. I will make another one tomorrow and post that, as well as dimensions if you want to wait the extra day. I just wanted to get it posted :D I think the card is pretty self explanatory. I used a lot of scalloped products. 3 different types actually- die cut, scissors, and a punch. I was inspired by the patterned paper, looked up its coordinating colours (Cameo Coral, who knew!) and went with that! I thought Lemon Tart and this darker Coral colour went nicely. I also thought script of the sentiment went well with the theme.

Supplies: Stamps: Birthday Basics, Oh So Sweet Ink: Berry Sorbet, Barely Banana, Cameo Coral, Certainly Celery Paper: Cameo Coral, Walk in the Park, White, Lemon Tart, Dark Coral Textured Accessories, etc.: Die cut, scalloped punch, scalloped scissors
