OWH Stars & Stamps Sketch #121

Here's the sketch for this week's OWH Stars & Stamps challenge #121.

This is the card I came up with for the sketch. I dug into my stash of retired SU! papers and mixed several patterns up with some chocolate chip and baja breeze cardstock for this. I used the SB labels 18 dies, adding lines inside of each die cut with an old CTMH brown markerl The sentiment is by SNSS and the embossed panel was done with a TH Sizzix damask ef. The chocolate flat back pearls are from Pizzazz Aplenty.

I hope all you moms out there had a fun and special day today, I wish you all a wonderful week ahead as well! Thanks for stopping by!

    Carol, What a pretty card. All of your papers look so nice together. The sentiment piece came out beautiful using the markers on the two die cut pieces and the added little brown pearls add a tender touch. Hope you day was nice.

    This was a great sketch for scraps, wasn't it? I love the tip you shared about tracing around the dies with a marker. I've never done that and must give it a try!

    Carol, beautiful card! I like how the panels are slightly apart to show the back panel. Beautiful papers and great sentiment!
