CAS(E) This Sketch #168

Today, I have a card to share that I made for

 CAS(E) This Sketch #168 designed by Sam Simpson:

Now, I have to confess, that I often struggle with putting something on a angle like this.

(Even when I started scrapbooking, I hated tilting my photos -- it drove me crazy!)

Anyway, I decided to create a fun card, with a tilt...

I chose a piece of watercolour wonder patterned paper (from PTI) that was in my stash.

From it, I diecut two popsicles (from PTI's Summer Sweetness), as well as from a piece of foam adhesive.

I stamped the sentiment (also from Summer Sweetness) onto a piece of vellum and heat

embossed it in clear, before stitching it to my card with my sewing machine.

I diecut two more popsicles from white cardstock, blended some classic kraft ink

onto the sticks and stamped them.

I adhered these over the foam.

Then, I trimmed the "stick part" off of the patterned paper diecuts 

and then adhered them over top.

Visit CAS(E) this Sketch to see the rest of the DT's takes on the sketch 

and to play along, if you'd like.

You have until Thursday, April 21st to link up your card.

Oh, and before you go, I just wanted to let you know that I have
a project up on the Reverse Confetti Blog today.

Thanks for looking!
