Happy Saturday, everyone! It’s Crazy 4 Challenges time and this week Andrea is challenging us to use this sketch for our cards:
To be truthful, I was a little skeptical when I first saw this sketch but I ended up loving it! Isn’t it crazy how that happens?! It’s pretty obvious how I followed the sketch, using my MFT Die-namics Circle STAX and Die-namics Open Scallop Doily Duo for the circular element, then popping up the FABULOUS soon-to-be-released Lisa Johnson Designs - Primitive Pumpkins Die-namics and Stamp Set pumpkins. I’m simply CRAZY about this set! I made my floral wire tendrils again and stamped the sentiment on a Die-namics First Place Award Ribbon flag. I did some stitching, a little distress ink sponging, and finished it off with some clear Dew Drops for balance.
Here’s the inside with the star border and another sentiment from the set.
Here are the Die-namics dies I used on this card:
