Sketch Challenge - Night Divine

Boy this week’s Splitcoaststampers Sketch Challenge was a little different. The sketch is a shaped card that we fussy cut! I love the Oh Holy Night Designer Paper and thought it would work well for this design.

Here’s the sketch I used. You have to be sure that you keep the top edge folded so it stays as a card base that opens. You can click on the sketch to see the other projects posted for this sketch.

Tips & instructions

• Fold an 8 1/2 x 11 piece of scrap paper in half and then in half again.

• Cut a half heart, making sure the top keeps the fold. Make sure it will fit into your envelope. I made mine to fit in an A2 size envelope and had to cut it down a few times to get that size.

• Open the heart to see your template. It should look like this with the top part folded. 

• Trace the template onto a piece of O Holy Night Designer Series Paper and cut along the trace lines..

• Night of Navy Card Base - 5 1/2 x 11, score at 5 1/2. Trace the heart template on the card base and cut along the trace lines. Make sure the top keeps some folded area.

• Adhere the Designer Series Paper heart to the front of the card base making sure it lines up before you adhere it. You may have to trim it a little bit.

• Cut Nativity scene from Basic Black using the Night Divine Dies and adhere to the card front with Dimensionals.

• Stamp sentiment with Night Of Navy Ink on scrap of Basic White and fussy cut around it. You can leave it a a strip if you want. Adhere to card front with Dimensionals.

• Add a gold star to the card front.

Cut the heart template down a little to get a smaller heart, trace it on a piece of Basic White and stamp the sentiment with Night Of Navy Ink. Adhere to the card inside.

Fun Halloween Card using Pick Of The Patch

• Cut the greenery piece from Basic Black Cardstock using the Christmas Classics Dies.
  Tip - Cut upside down so the blade is facing up. This is helpful with intricate dies. I use one plate for cutting and one as a top place so I just flip the sandwich over then I cut intricate dies.

• Cut the square that fits inside the floral piece from a piece of Basic White using the dies and adhere to the greenery piece.

• Stamp the sentiment with Black Memento Ink at the very top right corner. Try to go as high as you can because it’s a tight fit with the pumpkin.

The Black & White Gingham Ribbon really pulls the card together.
