Hi!!
Lindsey has decided that it is time again for another Jacksonbelle
Embellishments Card Contest!! Starting Tuesday, September 2nd, and every
Tuesday in September, the Design Team and I will be posting a new Sketch!
We'd LOVE for you to all join us! Wanna
know what you can win!?
Following the last Tuesday challenge, (Sept. 29th), you
will have until Wednesday, Sept. 30th
at midnight (EST) to get your cards in to me. After that, the Design Team and Lindsey will
need a few days to decide on the winners! Be sure to check the Design Team blogs each
week for TONS of inspiration using the weekly sketch!!! We hope you will have time to play with us
and if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask!!!!
First, I will show you the sketch ~
For this sketch, should you decide to upload to SCS, please include keyword JBE018.
Now, here is my card based on this sketch ~
Remember, the sketch is just the start ~ feel FREE to let your imagination go wild! OK, my imagination did not go wild on this card but I will let loose on the next one!!! LOL!!!! I actually really like how this turned out and let me tell you, it was EASY!!! The base of my card is Basic Black with a mat of Tangerine Tango and then a piece of awesome decorative paper from Cosmo Cricket's Haunted line (Lindsey is out of this right now. If you want to order it, email her and she will let you know when it is back in stock!). I sewed around the entire front of the card using my Janome. The thread I used was actually white and since I wanted orange I used a sponge and Tangerine Tango ink and turned it orange! I stamped the Inkadinkado Raven using my Versamark and heat embossed using Black embossing powder. The image was stamped on a piece of orange paper that is also included in the Haunted Collection. I matted the image on Basic Black cardstock. For the final touches, I added Coal Shimmerz to the center of the raven in the circle, THIS black net, THIS black twill and then Imaginisce black glittery brads!
Now, hop on over to the girls blogs and see what they cooked up using this sketch!! I hope you can play along with us!
