Smile looks GORGEOUS on you!

 


Hello my dear readers, I am back sooner than I thought I would be. I was going to take a break, then I came across Challenge #398 - Sketch by CAS Colours & Sketches, the deadline was already nearing the end and I just could not miss out!


And I could not also miss out on second entry at November CAS Challenge by STAMPlorations! Because last time I regretted not using the optional twist!



So, I matted black cardstock on to a white card base, white cardstock onto the black one, to get started. After that I took strips of pink paper according to the sketch by CC&S and embossed them, following which I adhered them onto the card using my foam tape squares. 

   

For the sentiment I had already printed out some sentiments to make ATCs but ended up using this beautiful sentiment on this card. Later, the card looked a little empty so I added floral arrangements with stones, around the corners of the card and the corners of the middle piece. Finally, I was happy with how it turned out.


For the inside of my card, I decided to keep it simple. I cut out a piece of black heart and placed it in the middle using foam tape. Then I took the sentiment " sending you hugs " and stamped and cut it into a banner; placed a tiny heart on top of it. I had accidentally stained the top right corner, to cover up my little accident, I added two pink flowers with stones.



I embossed a strip of pink paper and put it onto the back of my card, and popped on the logo, as usual!


For the envelope, I used the same pink paper. I cut out a white heart and the sentiment I had printed earlier "You inspire me". After popping on the sentiment I realized it wasn't really straight, I decided to use strips of black paper ( I was inspired again by the card sketch here!) and it looked okay now. Finally, I added in the two black and pink hearts 💗.



Hope you liked this card of mine. Big thanks to CC&S and STAMPlorations for inspiring me with the challenges. Thank you for all the love and encouragement you all provide me, I'm blessed!

Love, 
Foo💜
