SFF082214--For All things and a New Punch

Hi Stampers!

Happy Friday to all of you!  Autumn is coming quickly, although you would never know it by the weather here this week--it has been hot, hot, HOT!  To celebrate the coming of Fall, I used a new stamp set that will be in the Holiday Catalog, and there are only 6 days until you can order it!  The stamp set is called For All Things.  But first, take at look at our great sketch by Stacey Tomkowiak:

Here is my take on the sketch:

Colors are Crushed Curry, Whisper White, Cajun Craze, Blackberry Bliss.  I used the sentiment from the For All Things stamp set, the note tag stamp from the Cheerful Tags stamp set, the Note Tag punch, Deco Labels Framelits, Perfect Polka Dots TIEF, larger butterfly from Kinda Ecelctic stamp set, Pearls, Crushed Curry 3/4" Chevron ribbon, Color Me Autumn DSP .
I hope you enjoyed lookng at my little creation.  Now click on over to the Sketch Frenzy Friday blog and check out what the other designers have done with this sketch.  We love to see what you create, so please post your creation based on our sketch this week.  You have 2 weeks to play along with us,

Enjoy!

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

Please join us!  You can upload your creation using the link on our blog, and go there to check out all the projects from out designers this week,

Enjoy!
