What If? Wed. Sketch Challenge



It's time for another fun sketch challenge at The House that Stamps Built and we are challenging you to make a card using the sketch below and link it up for a chance at some great Repeat Impressions rubber! For all the details on what you can win and to see the other Rock Stars cards using this sketch, please visit our blog.

For my card, I stamped Repeat Impression’s Postcard words background on white cardstock. I overstamped RI’s Maple Leaf silhouette with Versamark ink and embossed with white embossing powder. Then I sponged several colors of distress ink and cut off the corners before attaching over a lacey ribbon. The front of the card is cut off at the bottom so you can see the dp on the inside with a row of leaves punched out (ek success.)

Here is the sketch for you to follow when you create a card for our challenge. You do not need to use Repeat Impressions stamps to enter our challenges, but you get an extra chance to win if you do!


I am entering this card in the challenge at Joanna Sheen for Autumn Breeze.

Stamping smiles, Karen

    Love the leaf against that awesome inked background, Karen. And the touch of the tiny leaf border just completes the great detailing of your card. Fabulous.
