CAS(E) this Sketch #1!

I am so excited to share my card for the first CAS(E) this Sketch challenge.  I've been anticipating this for weeks and I know the rest of the team is as excited as I am!  Take a look at this awesome sketch:



I hope you'll come over, check out what the rest of the design team came up with, and play along with us!  We are so excited to get things started and can't wait to see what amazing creations you guys come up with!

What did I do?  Well, I decided to go for a Halloween card and the only circular shapes I could think of were pumpkins and spider webs.  Well, spider webs won out because I thought a little spider on the second web would be perfect for this sketch.  I used a web design from the Silhouette Store in Silhouette Studio to create a border by welding the webs together and then cutting the end webs in half so the whole row would stay attached to the card front.  I used some foam tape to pop the webs a bit higher than the card front so they stood out from the surrounding white.  For the spider, I used a button, some embroidery floss (legs), and a little blingy head.  I hope it inspires you to play along!


Stamps:  Tag Its #7 (PTI)
Inks:  Tuxedo Black (Momento)
Dies & Cuts:  Spiderweb (Silhouette)
Paper:  True Black (PTI), Solar White (Neenah)
Misc:  Foam Tape (Scotch), Black Button, Black Bling (Basic Grey), Silhouette Cameo, Embroidery Floss
