Its Friday again, this is my second post of the day….{crazy I know}….and time from another Inkspiration sketch Challenge, I must say Makeesha has out done herself with this sketch, I really love it and I know I will be using it again.
Here is her Sketch and I suggest making time to sit down and play along this week…..
This card is going to my bestie, Elise who is coming to Sydney from Brisbane this weekend for my birthday and to catch up with friends, last week we had one of our long chats on the phone…she has been single for a while {not sure why she is really beautiful but maybe a little too pickie} ….anyway….. she made a comment that she just wanted to find a “Stud”….. being the great friend that I am….. I whipped this up…not sure this is what she was hoping for but she will get a laugh.
Last week I did not do much stamping on my Inkspiration Challenge DT card, but I have made up for that this week….LOTS of stamping and so much fun to just get messy. I have stamped the Sanded background over Boarding Blue Cardstock in a mix of VersaMark and Choc Chip ink, I have then stamped Medallion {from the current Mini} in VersaMark and clear embossed the lot. I then got to the good part…. brayering Choc Chip ink over the surface. I just love the effect it has created. I have stitched the edges and roughened them up. I did cheat a little and moved the greeting down as you can tell from the sketch…. I hope that’s ok 🙂
Inside…. I say it all the time but I love doing inside my cards.
All Materials from Stampin’ Up!.
Stamps: Medallion, Wanted and Sanded
Ink: VersaMark, Choc Chip and Boarding Blue

That is fab, bet your friend loves it. I know I would (another single gal!) The brayer-ing over sanded looks fantastic. Would even work as a blokey card (without the medallion???). Hope your b’day has been great,
