Hello Friends!

Today I am featuring a card that I made for a team Sketch Challenge. This card features Designer Series Paper from the World Of Good Suite in the new Annual Catalog. Plus the embossing folder featured in the In Good Taste Suite in the new Annual Catalog. I love to use these 2 suites for masculine cards. I have added 2 different photos using different lighting and angles to show off the brass and gold accents.

Card Details:

• Paper with measurements

1. Early Espresso Card Stock for the standard card base - Cut 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" and score at 4 1/4".
2. Crumb Cake for the mat - Cut 4 1/8" x 5 3/8".
3. Very Vanilla Card Stock - Cut 3 7/8" x 5 1/8" for embossing and a small scrap for the sentiment.
4. World of Good Designer Series Paper for brass foil accent mates and small diamonds.

• Ink and Embellishments

1. Sahara Sand, Crumb Cake, and Soft Suede Classic Stampin' Pads for inking the embossing folder. Gently tap each ink pad all over the embossing folder.
2. Early Espresso Classic Stampin' Pad for the sentiment.
3. Gold Gilded Gems for sentiment
4. Forever Greenery Trim Combo Pack for back ground ribbon and gold threads for the sentiment. I unwound the gold thread to make separate strands of gold. But it will also work great if you do not unwind the thread.

• Tools

1. Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder for embossing the Very Vanilla 3 7/8" x 5 1/8" card stock.
2. Embossing/Cutting machine to cut die shapes and emboss Very Vanilla Card Stock.
3. Tombow Multipurpose Glue to adhere the mat to the card base.
4. Stampin' Seal to adhere the Designer Series Paper and sentiment to the Gold foil diamonds.
5. Sponge Dauber to blend the inks on the embossing folder. Gently tap and drag the sponge dauber to blend the inks.
6. Stampin' Dimensionals to pop out the sentiment.

• Stamp Sets and Dies

1. Layering Square Dies to cut the Designer Series Paper diamonds and the Very Vanilla sentiment.
2. By the Dock stamp set for the sentiment.
