24 Carrot Friend…a Blitz Sketch

Published by Michele Boyer at 7:08 am under Cornish Heritage Farms, My Designs

It’s time for the Kim Hughes Blitz Sketch Challenge at Cornish Heritage Farms! (Details here.)  I love sketch challenges so I definately wanted to do this one!

24 Carrot Friend

24CF2R

I selected a couple of older Kim Hughes sets for this card, Cutie Pet-Tootie and Pet-Tootie Sentiments.  The sentiment I used actually says “24 carrot friend” but I substituted the actual carrot image in place of the word “carrot.”

For the little folder, I used a McGill pocket folder punch.   I wanted the folder a little deeper than the punch so I cut the cardstock to the width of the folder, slid the piece through the punch and pulled out one end of the cardstock then punched.  Then I inserted the other end and punched to get the folder shape on that end as well. 

Be sure to check out that challenge thread for details on how to win a Kim Hughes stamp set!!!  (Remember…two per day!  WOOHOO!)  Have a great Friday!!! :)

Cardstock:  Prism Intense Orange, Natural Smooth   Patterned Paper:  My Mind’s Eye Front Porch “Blue/Polka Dots” and “Orange/Gold Flowers”   Stamps:  Cornish Heritage Farms “Cutie Pet-Tootie” and “Pet-Tootie Sentiments” from the Kim Hughes Collection   Ink:  Adirondack Pitch Black by Ranger    Accessories: Copic markers, McGill Pocket Folder punch, sewing machine, Stamp-a-ma-jig.  Card size 4 ¼” x 5 ½”.
