It’s
Friday again my friends and it sounds like we’re going to potentially have an
interesting one if the weather has it’s way (they’ve mentioned the SNOW
word that has Aidan very excited!) I
will also have a very exciting announcement on Sunday so you’ll have to make
sure to check back on the weekend. Before
then, it’s Friday, which means it’s time for our weekly Sketch Frenzy Friday
Sketch challenge. This week we were
given a really fun layout that once I again I choose to highlight some great
designer series paper we have (and best all, it’s FREE right now during
Sale-a-bration with a qualifying order, yeah!!!) I started with Calypso Coral for the cardbase
and then added a piece of Sahara Sand cardstock. The greeting is stamped down at the bottom
and uses the Hip Notes stamp set
(this stamp can be used for several occasions, in this case it’s a birthday
card for a friend) and was stamped in Soft Suede ink. The DSP is from the Best Day Ever Designer Series Paper package (this paper has such
great colors and prints it’s perfect to get us ready and with matching
accessories and stamps, all that you can get for FREE, what’s not to
love?) So I added three strips of the
DSP to a piece of Soft Suede cardstock before attaching it to the cardfront.
The
final touch was to add three little flowers that I punched out with the Petite Petals Punch using Calypso Coral,
Coastal Cabana, and Crushed Curry cardstock, embossed them with the Big Shot and Perfect Polka Dots embossing folder. I used a bone
folder to help curl the petals of the flowers before attaching them to the
card with glue dots. To add a little somthin-somethin to the card
I added rhinestones to the centers of
two of the flowers and a bow made from the Baked
Brown Sugar Think Baker’s Twine to the center flower (I actually had that
bow tied from another project that didn’t work out so it was perfect!)
I
love you we have so many great accessories that you can make a quick card with
very minimal stamping that will still grab your attention! The other design team members shared some fun
cards as well so please go check them out and then play along with the sketch,
I would love to see what you come up with, it’ll be great for any project on
your To Do list this weekend.

Have
an enjoyable Friday and hope you get some crafting time!
