Here is my card for the Sketch Challenge 621: Sketch Challenge 621 {11-30-16} by DCinkit at Splitcoaststampers
I combined it with the "Twine Inlay" technique: Twine Inlay Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers
Thanks Jeanne Jachna for the tutorial !
I used 3 different PP's from Deco Time and they all have glitter on.
All the stars are die cuts from Nellie Snellen: SD003.
I added 3 little stars beneath the large one with the inlay.
Thy are dangling when moving the card.
The smaller strips of PP under the large star are like arms, holding the card close with a magnet ( see little photo on the right).
Inside I added a die cut branch with stars from Nellie: SD003.
The Sentiment from Marianne design is stamped with Versafine "red satin" and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.
The sentiment says:"Pleasant Christmas days and a happy New Year".
Paper: Deco Time glitter PP's DS481-3/ White glitter paper
Ink: Versafine: satin red
Accessories: Big Shot-Heat Tool and clear embossing powder-Nellie Snellen: Star swirl, SD001 and Stars DS003/White and silber shimmery Baker's twine/Magnet/elastic

Superb! Love your creative take on the sketch with the strips folding out to open your card. What a clever idea! The inlaid twine star is amazing. Love the red papers and the wonderful red/white combo. The dangling stars add a wonderful touch. The inside is pretty, too. Love the sentiment. Thanks for the interpretation. Marvelous card. TFS
Wow - what a unique design! I love the way the card opens up and the "hanging movement"! The colours are beautiful, very Christmas-y, thanks for sharing with us at MAWTT, Emma (DT)
