Sketch Frenzy Friday 01-31-14

Hi Stampers:

Welcome to Friday once again and another Sketch Frenzy Friday creation.  We have a GREAT sketch this week from Marisol:
 And here is my card:
I don't know about you, but I am ALWAYS in need of birthday cards, and it seems like most of my creations for SFF are birthday cards.

This card uses the single stamp called Birthday Cake (item # 130390-wood mount only), along with Sweet Sorbet DSP--one of the FREE Sale-a-bration items with a $50 purchase.  I also used:
  • Sweet Essentials Stamp Set--132085(w) 126457(c)
  • Rhinestones--119246
  • Basic Black--121045, Soft Sky--131203 and Whisper White--100730 cardstock
  • Silver Glimmer paper--124005
I hope I have inspired you today!  You can check out the other designers on the SKETCH FRENZY FRIDAY BLOG
And don't forget to add your link!  We love to see what you create!

Sketch Frenzy Friday-01-17-2014

Happy Friday Stampers!

It's time for another fabulous Sketch Frenzy Friday challenge.  We have been on hiatus the last two weeks because we have been revamping our sketches and our designers!  We have a new list of designers.  You can find all of them listed in my left sidebar.  What hasn't changed is how you view our creations.  All of them are posted on our SKETCH FRENZY FRIDAY BLOG(click on the words to go there)

Here is the sketch for this week, created by Tammy Baldwin:
And here is what I created:
I turned the sketch sideways and added an extra layer-embossed with the Fancy Fan TIEF.  Instead of the three elements--like brads or buttons--below the greeting, I used a multi-looped bow made from the Crisp Cantaloupe twine which is part of one of the FREE Sale-a-Bration items.  Sale-a-Bration begins Jan. 28.

Here's a list of the other items I used on this card:
  • Calypso Coral, Whisper White, Tangerine Tango card stock
  • Watercolor Wonder Designer Series Paper
  • Circles Framelits
  • Scalloped Oval Punch
  • Express Yourself clear mount stamp set (Hostess item)
  • Early Espresso Ink
  • Elegant Butterfly Punch
  • Perfect Polka Dots TIEF
