Circle Sayings for FMS593

 Hello and thanks for visiting!

Today's card was inspired by another special birthday in our family.  I loved Karren's sketch challenge over @ Freshly Made Sketches because I could highlight some of my favourite retired dsp called, By The Bay 6x6, #160433, (who knows it may appear on the Clearance Rack :)  in the future).  I think it coordinates well with the shells from the Circle Sayings Stamp Set, #161348.  Please click the hyperlink above or the sketch challenge below to visit the blog challenge and then go make a card for someone special in your life!  




***  The Trix  ***

*  Follow the flow of the pattern  *  

*  Both pieces of DSP have a flow, a movement so to speak.  Orient the patterns so they work together, a flow from left to right.  First layer matches the 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 Night of Navy card base, the second layer is 3 1/4 x 5 1/2.  

*  Stamp the 3 3/4 x 2 inch sentiment layer with VersaMark® Ink, #102283 and Emboss with Gold Embossing Powder, #155555, then water colour the shells with Petal Pink Ink.  Add the sentiment with Night of Navy ink.

*  Orient the Petal Pink bow so it matches the flow on the DSP and adhere with dimensional.  Embellish with gems, Festive Pearls, #159963 & Iridescent Pearls Basic Jewels, #158987.
