Ink Stained Sketch 20090626

Along with it being the start of the weekend it's also Ink Stained Sketch Friday :)
Today's sketch is something I've been wanting to do for a while now and I'm finally getting around to it.
Here is the sketch...

Now I know what you're thinking...BORING...NO ~ don't cause there is so many fun things to do with the rectangle.

ORIGINALLY I had in mind the main image could be a removable ATC card!! Sort of a card and little gift in one.

BUT then I was thinking why stop at an ATC, you could make that area a fun little envelope and tuck all SORTS of fun things in it...a bit of jewelry, a couple of tea bags, a coffee sampler... the list could go on and on.

THEN I thought maybe someone might like to add a fun little puzzle ~ you know the tiny ones that come in a box...you could assemble the puzzle and wrap it in saran wrap then adhere it (temporarily) to the card face so it could be removed & played with...perfect for a childs card!

OR you could hunt around and find one of those plastic or metal mini frames for this area as a gift for family or friends!

Also, a bit about sentiments...so many people think you have to use the standard greeting card sentiments but I love to use Quotes or little sayings on cards. I know some of you know I have list after list of quotes, sentiments and proverbs here but just in case you didn't know there are loads of them for many occassions which I will continue to add to as I have more time.

So I hope you all decide to give this sketch a try and if you do, remember to post a link or send me a scan and I'll post it here :)
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!!!

  1. Did you post the cards we did from last week's sketch, Roni? I looked but don't see them. I did one and I think S-Lynn did one, too?
