I had a lot of fun with this week's Sketch Challenge. I wanted to use LOTS of the fun Jenni Bowlin products found at the Kraft Outlet. I started with a Small Buff Ivory Blank Notecard and added some of my Jenni Bowlin patterned papers. I chose to use these papers because they match all the wonderful Jenni Bowlin products in the store. I added a Town Square Journalling Card, and a Red Apothacary Sticker (row of stars), a Jenni Bowlin Black Label Sticker, and the Jenni Bowlin Chipboard Flag Piece with the matching Number Flag Banner Sticker on top of that. At that top of my card, I made a bow using several lengths of Natural Hemp Cord and over that is a black Jenni Bowlin button with Red Baker's Twine tied in the center. You can also see my "signature move" which is some machine stitching, and there's double-sided foam tape on the Chipboard Piece/Flag Banner Sticker to make it stand out a bit. The "Feel Better Soon" sentiment is an acrylic Verve stamp, and it's stamped onto a Jenni Bowlin journaling spot.
I'm sharing this card in the following:

ReplyDeleteHi Karen! This is such a fabulous card! I love all of the products you have used! I love reading all of your comments on my blog! You're such an encouraging friend! :) I hope I can find more time to do the same! We have only been schooling for 2 weeks now.
