Stars & Stamps Sketch #75

This card is coming a few days late, but I managed to finish it before next week's challenge, so I guess I'm doing OK :) It's for the Stars & Stamps sketch challenge #75 found here. I cut the black panels and lined them up close together following the sketch pattern, and adhered them to a piece of scrap paper with repositional adhesive. I stamped the tree with versamark, embossed it with white ep, and then separated the panels and aligned them on Yellow textured cardstock. I love this sketch and will be making more cards using it in the future.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great Tuesday!

You're not late at all, Carol! No rule that sketches have to be completed the same day, I promise!

I love everything about this card! The gingham ribbon, the stamping across the panels, the yellow with the black... just perfect.

Thanks for joining us in this week's OWH Stars & Stamps Sketch Challenge!

Carol, Great card. Love the yellow and black. The way you did the tress was very inspiring. I'm going to have to try that. Talk to you soon.
