Welcome back! And just like that, another week has started…
Today’s challenges: Time Out (#267) with a Cozy Theme; Color Dare (#626) as those are really cozy colors; Freshly Made (#662) Sketch, and sharing with Can You Handle The Pressure (#67) featuring Warm Drinks.




Here is the result:

Steps:
- Card Base: (8½” x 5½” scored at 4¼”) Cajun Craze cardstock.
- Accent Strip: (5½” x ½”) Boho Blue cardstock scrap hand torn.
- Focal Panel: (5½” x 3”) Very Vanilla cardstock.
- The Reading Girl image and the Relax sentiment from the retired In The Moment stamp set were stamped with Early Espresso ink.
- The Girl was colored with Stampin’ Blends Markers. (BROWN) Dog and Hair – Light and Dark Pecan Pie; (BLUE) Book, Jeans, Socks, and Coffee Cup – Light and Dark Boho Blue; (PEACH) Face and Hand – Light and Dark Petal Pink; Pillow and Comforter – Light and Dark Peach Pie with Light Calypso Coral shading; and (RUST) Blanket – Light and Dark Cajun Craze.
- The Girl was die-cut with the (2½”) Stitched Circle die from the Stylish Shapes Dies set.
- The Panel was then dry-embossed with the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder to mimic a Coverlet.
All elements were adhered to the card base to resemble the sketch. The Girl was fitted back into the opening.
Great advice…curling up with a good book under a comfy blanket with a lovely cup of coffee is my preferred way to relax. How about you?
Thanks for spending some of your time with me today. Cheers, Jolanda!
