Global Design Project #342 Sketch Challenge

 Hello and welcome,

Today I'll be sharing with you the latest sketch challenge #342 for Global Design Project make sure you check out their designs using the sketch below.

I've created a vintage/shabby chic style birthday card using the Happiness Abounds bundle and combined it with Texture Chic Designer Series Paper and Distressed Gold Specialty Paper. I love to mix and match products from the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalogue 2022 - 2023.

The stamped images from the Happiness Abounds stamp set are heat set using Versmark onto Shimmery White cardstock, Gold Stampin' Emboss Powder and heat set with the Heat Tool. The images are perfect for a watercolour look, I've used Petal Pink and Pool Party for the flowers and leaves. All of the images are die-cut out using the Blossoming Happiness Dies.

I've embossed the Shimmery White panel with the Timeworn Type Embossing Folder, then run Paper Snips along the edge of the Cardstock to distress it even more. I added Multi Mono Liquid Glue with a Sponge Dauber, wait for it to dry and then add Gold Gilded Leafing, brush off excess.

To create the strips I used Tear and Tape, placed a strip along the embossed panel then applied Gold Gilded Leafing. The other three strips are from the beautiful Texture Chic suite, two are from Texture Chic Specialty Designer Series Paper I love the colours and design in the paper. The other is a gold strip from the Distressed Gold Specialty Paper.

To finish off the card I've stamped the sentiment in Pool Party, fussy cut out using Paper Snips and applied three butterflies from the Brushed Brass Butterflies.
