make it monday #69

Today, I am joining Papertrey's Make It Monday challenge. A new challenge is posted here every Monday and anyone can participate by creating a project utilizing one's take on the challenge.  The project must use at least one Papertrey product.

For this week, Nicole showed us how she uses random bits of inspiration to create unique sketches as a foundation for projects.  We are challenged to make a project using one of the sketches she created.

Today, we are attending a little girl's birthday party.  I want to make her a card so I decided to use the first sketch as my inspiration.

And here is the card I came up with...  This is the first time that I made a card with some elements of it going outside my card base.  I have always thought that all my cards should fit in an A2 envelope.  Since I am giving this to the receiver in person, I thought why not "go outside the box". And it feels quite liberating.  I will definitely do this again.  




Using one of my all-time favourite colour combos --
raspberry fizz, aqua mist and harvest gold

Wow, I used 100% Papertrey products on this project. I used Papertrey's cardstock (Stamper's Select white, Harvest Gold), PP (Raspberry Fizz, Aqua Mist), stamps (Up Up and Away, Simple Sentiments), dies (Edgers #3, double ended banner) and ink (Raspberry Fizz and Smokey Shadow). 

And here is what I stamped on the inside...

Thanks for looking!
