Feeling Sentimental Just For You - The Sweet Stop Sketch Challenge #201

The world Catholics have a new Pope - someone from Argentina!  I couldn't believe it when white smoke came out of the chimney!
I seem to be on a masculine card roll this week.  This card features one of the Sale-a-bration stamp sets and was made using the sketch challenge with The Sweet Stop Sketch Challenge here

SSS201 

This 5 by 5" square card has a base of Early Espresso, layered with Very Vanilla card stock.  The next layer two different pieces of  DSP from the Print Poetry SDP stack.
I stamped the image using Early Espresso ink, stamping off 2 times backwards in order to create the semblance of motion. This image panel was matted with Midnight Muse cardstock using dimensionals. It was attached to the DSP at the level of the darkest DSP.  A piece of stitched Midnight Muse ribbon completed the card.  The embellishment is a Silver Soda Pop Top which I flattened in the Big Shot.  I place a 1/2" circle of Midnight Muse in the center of this pop top followed by a bow made with Blue/white Baker's twine.

Stamps: Feeling Sentimental (SAB), Teeny Tiny wishes
Inks: Early Espresso, Midnight Muse
Papers: Early Espresso, Very Vanilla, Midnight Muse, Print Poetry DSP stack
Accessories: Word Window Punch, 1/2" circle punch, Silver Soda Pop Top (small), Blue/white Baker's twine, 3/8" stitched Midnight Muse satin ribbon, dimensionals, glue dots

What a wonderful masculine card. The image is lovely and I like the motion technique you've used. The blue gives a really rich, warm feel. Thanks for playing at The Sweet Stop this week and good luck. X

What a fabulous masculine card, Maria! Love the blue color and the use of multiple stampings to give the illusion of motion! Thanks so much for playing along with us at The Sweet Stop this week!
