Freshly Made Sketches #609

Hey Everyone

Welcome to my blog and another new sketch challenge at Freshly Made Sketches. This week our sketch designer is the super talented Judy Rozema.

My card started off with these stamped flowers from the Two Tone Flora Stamp Set. I had them sitting on my desk left over from another project, so I can’t even remember what colours I used for them.

Also sitting on my desk were the pre-cut leaves from the Textured Floral Dies. These have been cut with Pool Party Cardstock. I placed these flowers and leaves over a piece of cardstock that has been shaded with Pool Party Ink and a Blending Brush. I flicked ink over the background with the Dark Night of Navy Blend before I stuck down my flowers and leaves.

The designer series paper I added in the background and strips are from the Countryside Inn DSP pack. I then added a thank you sentiment and a single pearl for a bit of blingyness.

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

Thanks for stopping by.

Cheers

Freshly Made Sketches #589

Hey Everyone

It’s Wednesday, so that means a new sketch challenge to play along with at Freshly Made Sketches. This week our sketch has been designed by Linda Callahan. Linda’s card are always perfect with the best images and matching sentiments. Even though I had Linda’s sketch in front of me, I kinda stuck the middle strip under the circle – but I figure it was close enough – and hope she forgives me….

The stamp set I’ve decorated my card with is called Beauty of the Deep Stamp Set. I’ve also used die cuts from the matching Beauty of the Deep Dies. I created a sort of port hole by using circle dies and small dots cut with one of my expired tag punches. This little circle is the hole that was cut out of the top of the tag. I added this blue strip of DSP from the Countryside Inn DSP pack because it felt a bit nautical to me with the stripes.

The team have created awesome cards with this weeks sketch. Head over to Freshly Made Sketches and see what they’ve created.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hey Everyone

Welcome to another Wednesday and another new sketch challenge at Freshly Made Sketches. This week our sketch has been brought to us by Jennifer Timko. Jen is an amazing crafter who always makes me say wow!

Here’s her fab sketch:

I reached for my new Colour & Contour Stamp Set that had yet to see ink for this card. I took my colour inspiration from my new Countryside Inn DSP. I kept everything blue from my flowers to the masked background.

The team have created wonderful projects that you will want to check out. Make sure you head over to Freshly Made Sketches and see what they’ve created.

Thanks for stopping by.
