Hi! I’m Sara Levin theartfulinker an independent Stampin’ Up! demonstrator in the US. Welcome to my blog! Today is the Stamping Sunday Blog Hop Get Sketchy. The members of the design team and I have used the same card making sketch as the basis for the cards we’re sharing with you today. So get ready for lots of fab ideas!!

Stamping Sunday Blog Hop Get Sketchy

For today’s Stamping Sunday Hop, the design team are all using the card making sketch that you see above. Sketches are fun because they give us some basic guidelines and then we can just create from there.
Stellar Birthday Card

To create this just because, thank you or even job well done card, I used the Stellar Birthday set. As I’m sure you know, I’m not one to let the intent of the set get in the way of how I might want to use it. Case in point being this set called “birthday” but, I didn’t want to make a birthday card with it – LOL.
To start, you’ll blend on a cosmic background.

To meet the suggestion that the two circles on the sketch make, I used the girl astronaut and the moon. Just because it shows circles on the sketch, doesn’t mean one has to use circles.

The sketch also shows embellishments. And, I’ve certainly embellished. I’ve added Clear Wink of Stella splatter, die cut stars and even a few Subtle Shimmer Sequins.
And, you’ll notice the horizontal bar. Well, I used my sentiment strips to meet that detail.
