Authentique May Sketch Challenge



A quick card for Authentique's May sketch challenge. I'm using their new Delightful collection.

This is the sketch, and you'll see that I've made a few adjustments, tilting the mat for the center panel.



For the main panel, instead of creating four individual squares, I used a technique I saw here that I've been wanting to try, but on a larger scale.



In a nutshell, you score a grid on the cardstock and distress the paper a bit with ink, then stamp on top of it. I used a stamp from the Togetherness set which is actually stamped in second generation with Tulip ink.

The trims are from Hydrangea Hippo (elastic lace) and also from a bulk ribbon buy I made from Express the Moment.

Thanks for coming by!

Supplies Used:
Paper/Cardstock: Authentique - Delightful papers; CTMH - White Daisy bulk card
Stamps: Togetherness, Say it In Style
Ink: Tulip
Other: CTMH - Dimensional Foam Tape, Sponge Dauber; Tombow Adhesive; Hydrangea Hippo - Elastic White Lace; Express the Moment - Grosgrain ribbon; Corner Rounder
