RetroSketches #16

Well hello there!!
It's time for me to share with you another fabulous RetroSketches sketch.

This week's sketch comes to you from our guest designer N@.
She is a fabulous CAS designer. 
Head on over to her blog to check out her AMAZING card on which this sketch is based.


Now at first look this may look a little daunting, but as Arielle said, this is a perfect time for a little "out of the box" thinking!!

I chose to focus on the general layout and all of her wonderful layering.


Now my layering comes in a one layer form, but there is still lots of layers!!
Well at least that's what I'm telling myself. :)

I used PTI's "love birds". 
Again I cut apart a stamp that came as two birds because they were too close together to ink up in different colours.
I also embossed the base card with their woodgrain impression plate.

Head on over to the RetroSketches blog to admire N@'s remake and the samples from Arielle, Jackie and Laurie.

We can't wait to see how you interpret this sketch.
You have until Thursday June 21st at midnight to link up.

Thanks for stopping by.
Have a great weekend!!

  2. What an incredible idea. You have done such an amazing card with the coloured love birds inside the cages. I think I need to CASE this one.

  12. Okay, when I first looked just at the sketch, I thought, now that is going to be one hard sketch to transform into CAS -- and then you do it perfectly!

  14. I'm always amazed by N@ work and loved her white-on-white take, but then I scrolled down and was uber amazed by your card. Fabulous. Even the sentiment font/placement.
