Freshly Made Sketches 146 : Amazing



For this challenge I was inspired by my new "The Amazing" stamp set to create this card from Papertrey Ink. The sentiments and stamp images are so fun. I used the coordinating dies to cut out several circle mazes and glued them together to give the main focal point some dimension. Added some fun washi tape and a sentiment from the Amazing set. Such a fun sketch! Thanks for looking.

Freshly made sketches #103 : stitched hearts

For this sketch challenge I pulled out a stamp set from PTI that I love but for some reason rarely use called Quilters Sampler. I love coloring in the quilting squares. For this card I punched out two hearts and stamped the quilting squares on it and colored with prismacolor pencils. I adhered them on a white cardstock panel and added strip of PTI lemon tart polka dot paper. I rounded the end corners. I adhered that panel to a PTI Hawaiian Shores panel that I quilted using the scor pal. I hand stitched the buttons and Hawaiian shores panel with embroidery floss. I just love the sentiment. Thanks for looking.

Freshly made sketches 102: thanksgiving

Made this card for the freshly made sketches challenge. I used PTI Autumn Pattern Pieces and Basket of Blessings sets. The basket of flowers is so fun to color. I used my scor pal to put a quilted pattern on the melon berry cardstock. Stamped the sentiment on vellum and adhered with silver twine and a button.

Freshly made sketches 99

So this one was a bit of a challenge. I can never figure out what to do with my circles when I have sketches like this. So I started with paper color choices and came across the patterned paper that reminded me of honeycomb. So then I decided to play with my Bee stamps from Papertrey Ink. I added some glitter to the wings of the bee to make them iridescent. I then stamped some flowers in versamark on the aqua card base. Pretty happy how it turned out considering I made most of this card in the dark since the power went out at my house. Ha ha, there could be a challange idea.. cards in the dark. LOL!
Here is the sketch and link.

Freshly made sketches 98, Dynamic Duos #65

Today I combined the Dynamic Duos color challenge with the freshly made sketches challenge. I made my card rectangular instead of square. I didn't have the exact stampin up colors for the color challenge so I used an old stampin up mint color and melon berry from PTI. I also wanted to play around with clear cardstock from Papertrey Ink (PTI). This is what I came up with.

Here are the challenges. Click on picture for link.





I won a honorable mention! Thank you.
