Evening Classes and Baby Tees

Over the summer holidays, classes will be shifted to a Thursday evening 7pm till 9pm from July 14th to Aug 11th.  The individual dates are on my side bar and all you have to do is drop me an e mail to book your place - ails300@btinternet.com.  It's all very informal and hopefully you will go away having tried out a new technique or re visited an old one.

Onto todays card.  For this one I've followed the sketch over at less is more.  I quite enjoy following a sketch it gives the old mojo a boost.  Go check it out there's always loads of entries which in turn means loads of inspiration.


My card is using the Baby Tees Jumbo Wheel.  I rollered the Baby Tees in crumb Cake then cut out 3 vests.  I used my Blender Pen to add some Pear Pizzazz and Crumb Cake to the vests.  The background was made by using a template to mask off an area and sponged with Bashful Blue.  By moving around a scallop circle scrap and sponging the edges you can create a lovely cloud effect. I then strung my baby tees along a Linen Thread washing line and popped them on some Dimensionals.

And here's the inside........


........where did the linen thread go?  Well I added another piece of Whisper White, the same size, to the inside of the card and sandwiched the thread in between.  I added some decoration by creating another sky panel and a baby tee to the bottom corner.  The sentiment, Congratulations, is from Occasional Quotes.

Thanks for having a look,  I'm off to check out all the other entries.

Here's what you need to make this card -
All Stampin' Up! supplies

Card - Whisper White
Ink - Crumb Cake, Pear Pizzazz, Bashful Blue
Stamps - Baby Tees Jumbo Wheel, Occasional Quotes
Other - Sponge Daubers, Dimensionals, Blender Pen, Linen Thread
