SS#60 & AS #10





Here is this weeks fab sketch from Sketch Saturday that i used for me card. Now you'll prob think me mad but i looked at this and the 1 thing that came to mind was that the side shape looked like a chop {as in lamb} and that really was the whole inspiration for the card.

I also found a great prompt from All Sorts which was to "Only use 1 of everything on your card" which i found was slightly harder than i had first thought it might be!

As you can see i used 1 red piece of core'dinations card to create my "chop" shape.
1 piece of gold paper, some of which i punched using my 1 MS loops punch.
1 image {panduro} i did try to use only 1 colour but it looked naff so i had to use 3 in all, but it was with 1 type of medium which was distress re'inkers.
1 sentiment embellishment, of which i used pieces from the left over card and gold paper and 1 ribbon.
I know i've slighty bent the use of "one" of everything in this card but i'm hoping it still counts lol


Thanks for stopping by x

Great take on the sketch and looks a little challenging to use just 1 of everything, great card! HuGs Kim :)
