Majestic Tree Tag – Sketch Challenge

Hi!  Welcome back!  I had a bit of a play in the Studio this morning.  I created a card for the Try Stampin’ on Tuesday Challenge (#530) and the Tic Tac Toe Challenge (#137).

Then I re-created it with the colors from the current Facebook Colour INKspiration Challenge (#110).  It is interesting how changing colors make a difference in the overall impression of the card.

Here are the results:

Steps for Card One:

• Card Base: (8½” x 5½” scored at 4¼”) Shaded Spruce cardstock.
• Side Panel: (3″ x 5¼”) Very Vanilla cardstock dry-embossed with the Timber 3D Embossing Folder.
• Side Trim: (1″ x 5¼”) Garden Green and Basic Black Plaid pattern from the retired Warmth and Cheer Designer Series Paper pack.
• Tag: (1⅞” x 4½”) Kraft Paper.  The edges of the Tag Box were embossing using the Simply Scored™ Scoring Tool.  Garden Green Twine from the retired Country Club Twine pack was wrapped around the top of the Tag and another piece was looped through the Hole.
• Focal Image – Tree: (1¾” x 3¾”) Garden Green cardstock die-cut with one of the tree dies from the Majestic Mountain Dies set.
• Sentiment Circle: Garden Green cardstock.  The sentiment, A Happy Hello to You, from the September 2016 Paper Pumpkin Kit – Something Good To Eat was stamped with Versamark ink and heat-set with White Embossing Powder.  The sentiment was punched out with the retired One Inch Circle Punch.

CHANGES for Card Two:

• Card Base: Pale Papaya cardstock.
• Side Panel: Shaded Spruce cardstock dry-embossed.
• Side Trim: Basic White and Basic Black Plaid pattern from the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper pack colored with Shaded Spruce ink applied with a Brayer.
• Tag: Cajun Craze cardstock dry-embossed with the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder.  Linen Thread wrapped around the top and bottom of the Tag.
• Focal Image – Tree: Basic Black cardstock.
• Sentiment Circle: (1”) Pale Papaya cardstock. The sentiment, It’s Your Day from the A Good Man stamp set was stamped with Versamark ink and heat-set with Black Embossing Powder.

All of the elements were arranged and adhered to the match the sketch.  Which is your favorite?
