Saturday Sketch

 I'm still trying to catch up with the sketches from my demonstrator training group - that I missed during the summer.  Today's card is a fall themed birthday card, and made with products that will be ONLINE EXCLUSIVES from the "Gathering Together" suite, available beginning September 3.  The greeting is from another new stamp set, Branching Out, from the September-December 2025 mini catalog, also availble beginning September 3.

This card has quite a few layers, and is one I probably would not have made if I wasn't using a sketch.

Details about this card: 

• Card base is Early Espresso 
• The next layer is Cajun Craze 2-tone card stock, which I embossed using a new (on Sept. 3) embossing folder called Gathering Leaves.
• The leaf paper is from the new "Gathering Together" 12 x 12" designer series paper pack.
• The Early Espresso strip that is across the card - is from the same paper pack.
• I added another Cajun Craze 2-tone card stock piece - embossed with Gathering Leaves.  But this time I lightly sanded the paper to expose the white core center of the 2-tone card stock.
• The final layers are for the greetings: a stitched circle and another thin strip of designer paper from Gathering Together.

Check my ONLINE STORE on September 3 to see the new online exclusives as well as the September-December mini catalog.  If you would like to receive a copy of the catalog, please CONTACT ME.
