The Card Sketch Challenge will be open until this Sunday, April 19th at 11:59PM ET. There is still time to enter your projects! We can’t wait to see where your creativity takes you!

Good morning! Jess here with a card for our current Card Sketch challenge! For my first card this month I followed the sketch pretty closely so this time I wanted to take a slightly looser approach! 🙂

To start I die-cut balloons from Party Balloons with Lawn Fawn cardstock in Guava, Raspberry, and Mermaid. I also die-cut two clouds from Spring Showers with Pixie Dust Sparkle cardstock. I added a few accents with a white paint pen and then set those aside while I worked on the rest of the card.

Next I blended distress oxide inks in Tumbled Glass, Salty Ocean, and Blueprint Sketch over the Cloudy Stencil to create a cloudy sky! I let that dry for a few minutes while I tied Silver Sparkle twine around my balloons. I also die-cut the sentiment from Scripty Hello three times from Black Licorice cardstock and adhered them together. Then I adhered my balloons and clouds to the stenciled panel with foam mounting tape. I tucked the balloon tails around my sentiment and then adhered it with foam tape as well. Finally I knotted the twine and trimmed off the ends to finish the card!

And that’s it! You have one more weekend to get crafty and I can’t wait to see what you’ll create! Thanks so much for stopping by and have a fantastic weekend!
