The Any Hero card below was inspired by OWH Sketch #173.
 |
| Stamper's Best sentiment, heat embossed in Distress Ink black soot Distress Ink core paper, green and black paper embossed with Sizzix folder Paper Studio star punch; Stampin' Up neutral brads |
For a change, I was pretty true to the sketch -- adding a few brads on the left and shifting the focal point rectangle a little to the right.
I went with black brads in the lower rectangle to balance the star(s), and add just a little more interest to the card, without detracting from the sentiment. And, the brad in the stars is much closer to the sentiment paper than it appears on screen.
A second source of inspiration was seeing Sandy's recently-posted Any Hero cards in non-traditional palettes.
Parting Thoughts
Enjoy the rest of your Sunday. We're headed to my father-in-law's for dinner.
As always, thanks for stopping and happy scrappin'!

This is a fabulous Hero card. I think the star and brads are ideal touches. Enjoy your dinner with your father-in-law.
I would not have thought of that color combination - it is really striking! Love how you made the sketch your own.
I love the brads- they help to anchor the star! Beautiful job--that sentiment is so heartfelt!
Your hero card is great and I need to get on the stick and make more too! I hope you enjoyed your dinner at your FIL's!
I really like it! The texture in the background really adds a lot of interest.
Very nice...love the use of brads...tfs!!!
