Limelight Sketch 34: Chipboard!


Happy Thursday, friends! Are you ready to get sketchy with the Limelight Papercrafts Design Team? Including it's two NEWEST members, Lisa and Christi??? ;) Good! Let's get started then!

I used basic PTI white cardstock for my card base. I really wanted to keep this card simple and let the chipboard star really SHINE (haha....). I layered on four patterns from the Cosmo Cricket Jolly By Golly Mini Deck (back in stock at LAST!). I don't know if you can see it, but I drew on little white x's between the scraps to add a little somethin'... The chipboard star is actually from the Cosmo Cricket Buck Naked Ornaments set. (I feel like giggling even typing that name...) I covered the star is sparkly Pink Frost Sparkle Fibers. Isn't it pretty?!?!? The sentiment, stamped in Pink Passion, is from PTI Winter Swirls.

Hope you will click on each of our DT members' blogs (see my right sidebar) for inspiration, and then join us by creating a card!

Second try today -- my link didn't work.

A great sketch and definitely a challenge since I didn't have many chipboard options.
