For this card, I used:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Basic White card base (8-\u00bd\u201d x 5-\u00bd\u201d, scored at 4-\u00bc\u201d)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A panel of Pleasant Patterns Specialty DSP for the focal layer<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A strip of silver foil to add a touch of shine<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pretty in Pink cardstock to bring warmth and softness to the design<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The combination of soft florals and metallic accents creates a balanced look that feels both delicate and polished.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Why This Sketch Works:<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OWH Sketch #219 is incredibly versatile.
