CAS(E) This Sketch #124

I must admit that this challenge from CAS(E) This Sketch had me . . . . well . . . . challenged.  Then when I got out my Masterpiece set from PTI to make a card for their blog hop, I saw it.  The perfect "out-of-the-paint-box" image.

The easel legs aren't parallel like the sketch but there are three of them.  I double layered, double embossed it in Platinum and used a stamp by Hero Arts for my sentiment, masking it to stamp in two colors.  That went right the first time, much to my surprise. :D

I signed up for this online card class at the last minute and here's a card from the first day's lesson.

I'm not crazy about my flower placement but I do love the concept and it was great to pull out my WPlus stamp set. The sentiment is NBUS from Stamplorations.

Papertrey May Blog Hop Challenge

It's that time again.  Time for what?, you say.  For the Papertrey Ink monthly blog hop.  This is the inspiration photo.

I thought about this for a while and considered inking squares or some other shape.  I thought about putting color under a coverplates or stamping an image in various colors.  Then I remembered the paper that came with the Masterpiece Make-it Market Kit and the decision was made.

All the stamps are from the set.  I cut a stitched rectangle from SSS to place my sentiment on, popping it up with foam tape.
