Made per instructions in the kit, just left off the twine.
No stamping required!!
Trimmed card front to 4 x 5 1/4, used other half of card for white
accent layer and attached to a Night of Navy card base.  

Trimmed card front and attached to Night of Navy card base.  Other half of original
 card was trimmed and used as a liner inside card for a note. 

Trimmed card front, added a Coastal Cabana layer and attached to Night of Navy

#DOSWTS331 - Stamping with the STARS -- Card Sketch with Painted Poppies

Hey crafty friends!!  Today I am Stamping with the STARS and bringing you a sweet birthday for our Inspiration Hop using a simple sketch for our guide. 

Card Details:
  • Paper 
    • Mossy Meadow 11" x 4 1/4", score and fold at 5 1/2"
    • Blackberry Bliss 5 3/8" x 4 1/8
    • Peaceful Poppies DSP 5 1/4" x 4", 1/2" x 4"
    • Whisper White 5 1/4" x 4" liner, scrap for sentiment
  • Stamps 
    • Sending You Thoughts (FREE Sale-A-Bration item)
  • Ink
    • Mossy Meadow
  • Other
    • Nature's Twine - Blackberry Bliss
    • Stitched Shapes Dies


Tip:  I separated the strands of the Blackberry Bliss twine from the Nature's Twine bundle.  The twine alone is very thick and I want a more subtle look, so separating the strands gave me the look of "less is more".





Painted Poppies DSP (151324) is my favorite paper from the Mini Catalog, be sure to add some to your shopping cart.
