Hey Everyone

There’s a new sketch to play along with at Freshly Made Sketches. This week our sketch has been designed by the wonderfully talented Linda Callahan.

Take a look a her fabulous sketch:

I had these pinecones already stamped laying on my desk. Love using up discarded images from other projects. However, using up these two pinecones, didn’t make a dent in the amount of stuff that is waiting to be used up! These leaf and pinecone images are from the Christmas Season Stamp Set. The pinecones are stamped in Soft Suede and Sahara Sand Inks. The leaves have been stamped in Evening Evergreen Ink.

The texture that I’ve given my Sahara Sand Cardstock is from the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder. I wanted a detailed background beneath the images. I created this by taking my Light Pale Papaya Blend and added colour to the cardstock. I then decided I wanted some matching ribbon. I didn’t have one on hand, so I took the same blend and White Crinkled Seam Binding and gave it colour.

To tie in more of the Pale Papaya, I added a torn offcut of Pale Papaya Cardstock under the sentiment. I then added three Basic Rhinestones for the bling I wanted for my Christmas card.

Here’s my card

The girls at Freshly Made Sketches have created wonderful cards using this sketch. Make sure you head over to the challenge and see what they’ve created.

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers
