OWH Sketch Challenge #142

I declared today a "catch up on some challenges" day, and I was just about to head into The Captain's Quarters when I spied the latest OWH sketch:

and I dropped everything else and made eight cards. I did. I have to tell you: this is the easiest way to disappear paper I've found. Here's one of my cards:


 I cut some of my still-out Basic Grey Ambrosia paper into 1.5" strips, created sets of three, notched the ends, and eight fronts were mostly done. I use my MFT Framed Greetings set with sentiments and die, cut and stamped eight sentiments, added dimensional adhesive - eight cards done. This was crazy-easy.

Here's one of the other ones I made:


Okay, NOW I'm going back in for some other challenges. :)

Thanks for stopping by!

    I love that you made a set of cards with this sketch! It's so fun to make multiples with a paper collection because you can make them each a little different so you're not bored and they all turn out great! Thanks for playing along with this week's sketch!

    Ah, another I-have-that-stamp-and-die moment here! Why is it that everyone else makes such pretty stuff from BG papers and the best I can come up with is a mismatched mess?

    Only eight cards? You couldn't just do two more and make it an even ten? (Just kidding!) Truly, that's amazing. The ones you shared here are lovely. My eyes always initially glaze over when I see sketches calling for many different papers, but you sure made it work!
