Made this for a friend who is about to embark on a new adventure using the layout from this week's Sketch Challenge (SC165).
For the bottom panel, I started with a 3-1/2" x 2-1/2" piece of Papertrey Ink's designer paper and layered it on top of a slightly bigger piece of Whisper White card stock which was layered on top of a slightly larger piece of Basic Black card stock. The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink's new set entitled Just Hatched which I stamped with Basic Black ink on Whisper White card stock I punched it out using the small Oval Punch and then layered it on basic black and cut around it. I faux stitched on both oval and punched a hole in the middle for the jump rings. I typically use jump rings for making jewelry, but I also love to use it to hang sentiments and/or images on cards or altered items. I made a bow out of Mellow Moss Taffeta ribbon looped it through the jump ring and attached the whole thing to the corner of the panel with glue dots and dimensionals.
