Triple Tags

Welcome to our first Freshly Made Sketch challenge of the year!  This challenge marks a year since I joined this team and what a wonderful group of people they are - love these girls!  Anyway, on to the sketch, which this week comes from Amy O'Neill, who has the most amazing knack of combining colors the rest of us can't imagine. And they work!

Here is Amy's sketch:

As you can see from my card below, I did take a couple of liberties with Amy's sketch.  Firstly, I used offset tags for my central image and instead of the sentiment being on the card base, mine is on the tag.  

I think (hope!) you can still see the sketch?

I used an Avery Elle set called Love Notes which is a builder set.  I stamped in various inks onto a stitched tag.  I then stamped the sentiment onto vellum and stitched that onto the tag at each end to match with the tag's stitched lines.

Plain tags were cut in Green Apple and Surf Blue cardstock and positioned behind the main tag and slightly offset.  A cute little bow from black twine finished off the card.  What is hard to see in the photo is that all the white layers were run through the Big Shop with the Canvas impression plate to give a subtle texture.

Thanks for visiting.  Be sure to check out the fabulous inspiration from the rest of the team.
