Hello! It’s time for another sketch challenge at CAS Colours & Sketches, and I created a fun card with a diagonal chevron pattern! ๐

Here’s our sketch for this week:
At first, I thought I’d make a similar card to this one (click on the photo to see the original post):
But instead, I came up with something a bit different ๐
As you can see, without meaning to, I used the same sentiment stamp! That’s really one of my favorite stamps, from the Gina K. Designs Natural Silhouettes stamp setย ๐
To make my card, I started by cutting the chevron strips. For that, I used the chevron die from the Occasional Tags die set from Brutus Monroe. Because the die is shorter than the length that I needed, I used partial die cutting. That way, I could extend the pattern and cut a longer strip ๐
I chose an orange and green color scheme, to match the current challenge at Color Hues:
After die cutting the strips, I adhered them diagonally on my card front, to create the fun diagonal chevron pattern. To finish my card, I simply stamped the sentiment, and then added the panel to a white card base.

I really love your chevron card, Michal. The script of the font is fabulous as well. Perfect use of our colors and I especially like that you added so many tones of orange and green. Thanks for playing at Color Hues.

What great ric-rac style detailing Michal – although must say I love the original card that inspired your sketch too. This one is a keeper – just like that sentiment stamp lol!
