thank you for your kindness|Stick It Down.

Hello and welcome to our first card sketch of 2015 at Stick It Down! What I love so much about using sketches is they are just a creative starting point. You can interpret the sketch however you want! Here's our January card sketch:

January Stick It Down card sketch

On the sketch, you see all these layers behind your sentiment. I chose to use ink blending for my background of the card to re-create that layered look.

I heat embossed my title using Ranger's Super Fine Detail powder in silver. This was a true test to see if it really was "super fine detail" because this stamp set is a really thin handwriting font. Look how beautiful it turned out! I'm a fan for life.
