SFF062014--A Baby Card

Hi Stampers!

It's Sketch Frenzy Friday time again!  We have a great sketch from Patrice:

And here is the baby card I decided to make:

The daughter of some friends recently gave birth to a darling little girl.  This is their first grandchild, and want I wanted to let them know how happy we are for them!  Appropriately, I decided to use some of the Lullaby DSP on the card.  It has colors I would never have thought to use together:  Coastal Cabana and Hello Honey, but surprisingly, they look pretty good together.  In addition to the two stamp sets and one of my favorite punches, I tied a piece of Hello Honey Satin Stitched Ribbon around one of the new In Color Printed Clothespins--LOVE them!!

Hopefully, you'll have time today to check out the other designers' great cards.  Just visit our blog  Sketch Frenzy Friday.

SFF061314 Another new In Color with a Twist

Hi Stampers:
Today our Sketch Frenzy Friday sketch was provided by Diana Eichfeld, and it's a good one!

And here's what I did with it:

I decided to use the new stamp set Sea Street because of the little octopus stamp.  Love this little guy!  Don't know if you can see his expression well, but he has a cute smile.  I, unlike some people, don't really like to cut things out with scissors, so I stamped the octopus with new Lost Lagoon on to Whisper White paper and then punched him out with the 2-3/8 inch scallop circle punch.  Although the new Maritime DSP doesn't have Lost Lagoon as a coordinating color, I decided it would blend very well, so I used it.  The card base is one of the new Cut & Ready card bases in the new 2014-2016 In Colors.  There is an assortment of 4 card bases in each color in the package for a total of 20 card bases. They are a little more expensive than just cutting card stock into cards, but I can tell you, as a demonstrator, I find them to be a wonderful time saver for me for prepping for workshops and classes.  The card bases also come in 2013-2015 assorment and packages of 20 all one color in several colors.  Check out pg. 194 in the new 2014-2015 catalog.  And if you need a catalog, please contact me!

Time to check out all the other designers at Sketch Frenzy Friday.  You can also post your own take on our sketch, and we would LOVE to see what you create!

Enjoy!

SFF060614 Blackberry Bliss!! I am in Heaven

Hi Stampers:

Quick post today.  Time again for  Sketch Frenzy Friday and we have a great sketch this week from  Patrice:

And here's my card:

The card base is the one of the new In Colors, Blackberry Bliss.  I am a lover of all things purple, so this color is right up my alley. For my focal point, I used the Flower Shop stamp set colored with our new Blendabilities alcohol markers.  I used Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive.  The sentiment is from a new photopolymer set called Endless Birthday Wishes.  Sadly, the Blendabilities markers will not be available until July, and the Endless Birthday Wishes set is temporarily on backorder.  I am going to play some more with Blackberry Bliss:  I love it!

Sketch Frenzy Friday--More My Digital Studio

Hi Stampers!

It's time once again for Sketch Frenzy Friday.  Our group of designers is blessed with lots of talent and today we are creating based on this sketch by Elizabeth Harris:

Isn't this a cute design?  Sometimes I run out of time to stamp, and I try to show my take on the design in My Digital Studio.  Here's what I created:

I LOVE the Watercolor Wonder DSP, even the digital version.  Along with the DSP, I used digital burlap ribbon and digital pearls which I recolored in Daffodil Delight. 

Hope you like my card today.  Now go over to our Sketch Frenzy Friday blog and check out what the other designers created.  And while you're there, add your own creation using the InLinkz tool.  We love to see what you create.

Sketch Frenzy Friday 04-18-14 A Little Vintage, maybe?

Hi Stampers:

It's Friday again and time for our awesome Sketch Frenzy Friday challenge.  I am your fearless designer this week, and here is my sketch:

And here is my creation:

This is a combination of cut card stock and two card kits.  The card base is Whisper White, the next layer is Bermuda Bay, embossed with the hexagon embossing folder, and the narrow strip is Coastal Cabana embossed with the Chevron embossing folder.  The flag, heart, button, and baker's twine are from the Happenings Card Kit, and the sentiment is a stamp from the Everyday Occasions Card Kit.  I stamped it with Stazon Jet Black ink before embossing the card stock.  The sponging was done in Soft Suede, and that's why I think the whole card is rather "vintage-y!"

Check out the other designer creations on our blog, Sketch Frenzy Friday.  And please add your own creation.  We'd love to see what you create!


Enjoy!
