  Fourteen of the month so you know what that means! It's team blog and Insta hop day! This month we are highlighting some of the sketches Stampin' Up!® has showcased in the annual catalogue on page 22.



The four sketches we had to work from were these. I really meant to choose a different one than I did as I have worked with this one before but I seem drawn to it! I took a a couple liberties with the dimension of my DSP layer and the layer I put behind it but otherwise I feel like I stayed pretty true to the sketch.


I was inspired by a card I had seen using Navy and bright colours and the Simply Sparkling Bundle. I couldn't figure out a way to work the images from that bundle into the design but the Best Ever sentiment is a single stamp from that bundle which I liked paired with several of the dies from the Friends for Life dies. I stamped it twice on two squares cut with the Perennial Postage Dies.



In addition to using the Full of Life DSP for the main focal piece, I die cut the heart border, friend and the swoosh from bits of the DSP as well. I also added a strip to the interior of the card.



Last, but not least, I want to share this tip when you are layering with large pieces of cardstock (or DSP). Use one large die, or several small ones, to cut from the middle to have pieces to use for other products. 





I can't wait to see what everyone else comes up with. Be sure to hop around and check them all out!
