April Sweet Stampede Blog Hop

Welcome to the April Sweet Stampede Blog Hop! We are back doing a sketch challenge again this month!

My project this month uses the Storybook Moments Designer Series Paper Pack and a sentiment from the Storybook Friends stamp set. 

This time I followed the sketch almost exactly as shown. I really liked it and didn't feel the need to make any big changes. That is what is so great about using sketches when designing your cards. 

And how cute is that little squirrel??? This Designer Series Paper comes with a whole sheet of cute critters to add to your cards and other projects. 

I used a scenic print piece of the DSP so it was placed on the Pecan Pie cardstock in pattern order after I cut the strips. The Lost Lagoon banner was cut in half down the middle and adhered to the card front so the banner ends lined up with the outside edges of the DSP. 

Hope you decide to give this sketch a try!

Measurements:

•  Calypso Coral  4-1/4" x 11", folded in half (card base)
•  Pecan Pie cardstock layer: 3-3/4" x 5"
