A Quick Hello

Have you ever come upon a sketch that you just HAD to do?  Every day I check lots of sketch challenges and I like most that I see.  But occasionally, I come across one that becomes a MUST DO before the week is out no matter how busy I am.   I've had a very busy week last week with two Hostess Clubs meeting, a workshop on Sunday and getting various post ready for upcoming blog hops.

On Sunday I saw the sketch for Paper Players challenge and I just couldn't quit thinking about what I wanted to do with it!  I have so many other things I need to be doing, like doing the wash and prepping for an upcoming trip, getting ready for my other two Hostess Clubs that meet this week, but I stopped everything for about 30 minutes last night to create a card for the Paper Players sketch.

This is a very easy and simple card and probably total time to put together took about 10 minutes.  It was hem-hawing around about WHICH stamp to use and WHAT color to stamp that took the longest.


See!  Very SIMPLE but I think it turned out nice.   I used the Lagoon (Z1850) and Slate (Z1817) Washi Tapes from Close To My Heart.  Next, I wrapped around some Slate Bakers Twine from the Baker's Twine Neutral Assortment (Z1701).  My 'hello' stamp is from the set that is included in the Artiste Cricut Collection - so of course I cut the image out before stamping.   Ink color - Slate Pigment Ink.   My green Aqua Dots (Z1853)  are the final touch.

Here is the Paper Player's Sketch:
                                          

I'm off to Asheville, North Carolina later this week but have a couple of post scheduled so be sure to come back and see what I have to share!   Thanks for stopping by today!
