Hi, everyone! For this week's Sketch Challenge 827, I created a pocket card for my nephew's birthday. I haven't made one of these in many years!! The card base is an upside down A2 card, with a flap scored and folded down for the front. Only the edges are adhered inside so that you can insert the inner panel/tag. For my card, I used the Birch Background Die from Divinity Designs LLC, cut it down to size with the Pierced Rectangles Dies, then used a paper cutter to separate the pieces for the front and the folded flap. A white gel pen highlighted all of the embossed parts which are usually stenciled with ink. It took a while to color them all, but I like how it turned out. For the small sentiment on the front and the inside tag, I used the 'Seek Me' set. Other dies used: Pierced Circles, Circles, Large Banners, and A2 Portrait Card Base with Layer. Another white banner panel was adhered to the back of the tag for a birthday sentiment and personal message. To see the front view, click HERE. Thanks so much for looking! Have a very blessed day!

The colors and details are just perfect. Soothing and inspirational. I particularly like the fish tail tag. Thanks for taking the double dare and creating a wonderful sample for my challenge.
