A Special Friend…

This design was a really quick one using patterned paper…stamped on of course! I’m loving that look these days. This particular layout came from this week’s CPS sketch and I played around with it a little to create my own version. The original sketch doesn’t call for a center opening card but I thought that scalloped line would be a perfect place to split the design and use a different fold for a change. It’s just like barn doors. When folding your cardstock, instead of folding in half…fold your outer edges to the middle. I attached a little piece of Natural cardstock that I scalloped the edge on to hide the seam. 🙂

Flourished Friend

This design uses stamps from the new Rummage Bin line from Cornish Heritage Farms. Also new and to be released later this week, a wonderful new sentiments set by Lisa Strahl. I LOVE it and it is going to be my reach for set on almost every design. If you’d like to try out this sketch layout you can check it out at CPS49. 🙂
