Crafty Challenge - August 2023 Sketch

The Crafty Collaborations Team is comprised of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world. Each month we participate in several collaborative projects, including Blog Hops, like this one to inspire all of us in our passion for crafting. Our Goal is to create, share, and inspire every crafter to keep our creative energy flowing.

Today features the monthly Crafty Challenger projects Featuring the below sketch.

This sketch is versatile in that you can add a card stock layer and the card can be vertical or horizontal. I decided to try both. 

Sticking with my need for male cards, I turned to the Let's Go Fishing 12 x 12 designer series paper. I only had 6x6 samples from my product share, but it was easy to cut and mix & match the designs. The cuts are as follows from the vertical card and if using a layer on the card, adjust accordingly if not using a layer.

• lower layer 2" x 3 7/8  
• upper left 3" x 1 3/8
• upper right 3" x 2 3/8

The die cut for the sentiment is from the All That Dies. I added some ribbon at the bottom of the sentiment, but you could use paper and the banner from same die set to create a similar look. I kind of like the horizontal look better, but they are both functional!
