Freshly Made Sketches #459

Hey Everyone

We have a new sketch for you to play along with at Freshly Made Sketches. This week our sketch has been designed by the wonderfully talented Jennifer Brum. Jennifer is an amazing crafter who creates lovely elegant cards and fab sketches.

I adore the images in the Warm and Toasty Stamp Set. Especially this polar bear. He’s perfect for giving a quick colour and an even quicker trim. The blends that I’ve used to colour his scarf and hat are Highland Heather and Smoky Slate Blends.

I added falling snow to the background with the ink splatters stamp from the In The Pines Stamp Set and Pool Party Ink. I stamped the ink splatters stamp off once on scrap paper to create a light background of snow.

The hills that I’ve created are from a piece of DSP from the Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper and a piece of Highland Heather Cardstock cut with the Pine Woods Dies. While I had the Pine Woods Dies on my desk, I cut two Whisper White Cardstock trees to finish the scene.

I played around with sentiments and ended up with Highland Heather Ink sentiments from the Peace & Joy Stamp Set. I think the solid ink sentiment works really well and stands out against the polar bear.

Here’s my card:

The team at Freshly Made Sketches have created awesome cards that will no doubt inspire you. Head over to the challenge and see what they’ve created.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hey Everyone

There’s a new sketch available over at Freshly Made Sketches for you to play along with. This week our sketch has been designed by the uber talented Jen Timko!

Here’s her fab sketch:

I’ve been totally distracted this week catching up on Netflix and sleeping in that I almost forgot to create a card for this challenge. I’m not overly loving this card, but it was all I could put together inbetween watching Emily in Paris…..

When you’re distracted and not really focussed on creating, let texture, DSP and die cuts do all the work! The Forever Gold Laser-cut Specialty Paper die cuts are what I used as the main focus on my card. I combined them with some pretty DSP from Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper pack.

After embossing the background Whisper White Cardstock with the Winter Snow Embossing Folder, I layered it all together for a quick and easy Christmas Card.

Here’s the card I created:
