Hello! Our Freshly Made Sketch designer this week is Linda Callahan and she gave us a sketch which can lead us in so many directions, but I went with the obvious and came up with this card:
The card I made prior to this one (not yet on my blog) featured peachy shades so I decided to go with a more masculine feel for this card and went with the blues. I used a brick embossing folder on three pieces die-cut with a stitched mod square stax die. From there is was a simple matter to add two strips of matching cardstock to a white card base, stamp a sentiment on one and add the embossed pieces.
The darker panel is adhered with foam tape, the other two with liquid glue. Some black pearls and that's it!
Thanks so much for visiting. I hope you'll check out the fabulous cards made by the rest of the DT.

Cardstock: White, Mist (Hero Arts), Blu Raspberry, Caribbean Sea (MFT)

Cheers
Karren
