Hello again crafty friends!!! We have a fabulous new sketch up over at Sketch N Scrap! This is our mid-month "Inspired By" sketch which is inspired by an original page, then given to us (And you!) to scrap!
I decided to do a get well card for a close family friend! He's been under the weather and I am hoping to bring a smile to his face upon receiving this in the mail :-)
Any who... Here's a look at the sketch:
I tend to always fall back on Tim Holtz products for ALL my masculine cards and pages (it helps that I am completely obsessed with all his products anyway!!!). So I started with a Kraft base and went to work!
I inked all my paper and ephemera edges with Walnut Stain distress ink. I grabbed some Creative Embellishments chipboard from my stash and inked it up as well, then added a heavy coat of rock candy crackle paint.
I used Vintage Photo distress stain to color my grungeboard hinges, then added several brads for detail.
Finally, I printed the sentiment from my computer using a font I downloaded called "bad grunge" (one of my favs!).
And there you have it!!! Another creation made fabulous by the amazing Tim Holtz (and a little bit of myself!!!!).
Well gang... Thanks so much for stopping in and have a LUCKY day :-)
Great job turning the sketch into a LOVELY card!
