Oh I do love Retro CTS week! Especially when it takes me back to before I even made cards … and to see wonderful designers who once graced the CTS team! Karolyn Loncon is someone whose style I still admire. Here is Karolyn's Sketch #55 from November 2013!
I dug deeply to find a panel with those wonderful open-stripes - alas, I didn't have one. Well, you know by now that I don't let a little thing like that hold me back...
In lieu of that panel, I impressed a panel onto my card front using a Wonky MFT rectangle - you might not see it, but the recipient will!
Thanks for stopping in today! I do hope you'll find a bit of inspiration, albeit a bit out of the ordinary!
