Hey Everyone

There’s a new sketch in town! Every Wednesday Freshly Made Sketches brings you a new sketch to play along with. This week our sketch designer is Jen Mitchell – Jen’s card are always elegant and so classy. Make sure you check out her blog and see for yourself.

Someone pointed out to me yesterday that Christmas is only a few weeks ago. I don’t actually believe that just yet but decided I better get myself into gear and make some festive cards.

I chose Christmas trees from the Merriest Trees Stamp Set for my card and kept my card a neutral colour scheme. I embossed the background to give texture to the Basic White Cardstock and added some Silver Threaded Twine.

The team have created awesome projects that will no doubt inspire you. Make sure you head over Freshly Made Sketches and see what they’ve created.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers

Freshly Made Sketches #606

Hey Everyone

It’s time for a new sketch challenge at Freshly Made Sketches. This week it’s my turn to design the sketch. Here’s the sketch I designed for you to play along with:

I received the Merriest Trees Bundle recently and decided this challenge was the one to give the products a run.

I stamped one of the trees from the Merriest Trees Stamp Set in Bubble Bath and Fresh Freesia Inks. The second tree was stamped in Pebbled Path Ink. Both of these trees were cut with the Merriest Tree Dies.

The sentiment from the stamp set was stamped and die cut out with a tree die for something different.

To a little bling to the tree, I took Gold Foil Carstock and cut rows of fights and adhered them to the pink tree.

I then stamped up a combination of the present images from the same stamp set and cut them out with the matching dies.

I took my new Abundant Beauty Decorative Masks, some Bubble Bath Ink and a Blending Brush and shaded the background to add a snowflaked background.

The team have created cards that make my sketch look awesome! Head over to Freshly Made Sketches and see what they’ve created.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers
