Good evening, friends! It's been a crazy week so far, but I'm thrilled to say that my 5-day weekend starts tomorrow. I have so much catching up to do!
I found a few minutes tonight to combine a couple of challenges: CAS-ual Fridays and RetroSketches.
The challenge at CAS-ual Fridays is to be inspired by the lyrics of a song. How fun! I thought of a few but needed a card for a friend whose son recently turned four, so I thought of a song by Feist, 1,2,3,4. The original version of the song is HERE, but I'm a little partial to her version on Sesame Street:
Feist on Sesame Street--1,2,3,4
Everything's better with Muppets, right?
I started with a kraft card base, then debossed a kraft panel with PTI's Sunshine impression plate and sponged the edges with white ink.
The patterned paper is from Echo Park's A Boy's Life collection. I stamped the yellow strip with numbers from PTI's Fresh Alphabet (1,2,3) and Outlines Alphabet (4). The star stamps and dies are also from PTI.
Cardstock: Papertrey Ink (Kraft)
Patterned paper: Echo Park (A Boy's Life)
Stamps: Papertrey Ink (Star Prints, Fresh Alphabet, Outlines Alphabet)
Ink: Stampin' Up! (Not Quite Navy), ColorBox (Frost White)
Tools: Papertrey Ink (star dies, Sunshine impression plate), corner rounder
Coloring medium: Prismacolor Premier pencil
