Saturday Sketch #17


Here is the card that I made using the weekly sketch from a demonstrator training group I am in.  I used Celebration Expressions Memories & More cards - which makes this card go together very quickly! 

I am not a huge fan of the color Lemon Lime Twist - so I went out of my comfort zone to use it as the background layer on this card.  I added texture using a retired embossing folder - sorry!  It's hard to keep up with what is still available and what has retired!

I cut a 1-1/2" strip off one of the larger cards (with all the words) then matted it on a slightly larger strip of the NEW Timid Tiger card stock. I layered it on the Lemon Lime Twist layer - I made sure that the word "birthday" was going to show at the bottom right - then I trimmed off the excess.  This piece was then layerd on the Timid Tiger card base.

The square images are about 2" - I cut the candle piece first (making sure I cut between the candles) - and then just used that measurement for the other piece.  The mats are slightly larger.

This pack of cards will be available in the 2025-2026 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog - beginning May 6.  I will be sharing other cards that I made using these Memories and More cards, in a private customer group - part of "A Card a Day in May" catalog launch event.  If you have purchased from me or attended an event in the past year - make sure you are part of the 2 Sisters Stamping Facebook Group.  Not a member?  Just request to join and answer the questions!

Here is the sketch that I used to make my card.
