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

Cards for the Box-Part 1

Hi Stampers:



Here are the first two cards I put in the box for the fund raiser silent auction that I talked about in my post yesterday:


For the card on the left, I used Old Olive for the card base and overlaid a piece of the small leaf print from the FABULOUS Autumn Spice Designer Series Paper. I scalloped the edge of it with the Eyelet Border Punch. The "Thanks" is from one of the stamps in the Level 1 Hostess Set, Afterthoughts--which can be yours with a workshop or an order totaling a minimum of $150. There is another line of text on the stamp, but I chose not to use it, so I inked just the "Thanks" with an Old Olive Stampin' Write Marker. The ribbon is the 3/8" Pumpkin Pie ribbon. Although Pumpkin Pie is not one of the colors that is supposed to coordinate with Autumn Spice I think it works very well!

The card on the right is one of the other designs from Autumn Spice DSP, and it's the same one I used for the box bottom. The butterfly is punched from the extra-large Butterfly punch using another one of the prints from Autumn Spice. I also punched a strip of the paper with the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border Punch. The sentiment is from a 2010 SAB set that is, sadly, no longer available. I stamped it on a piece of Naturals White cardstock and punched it out using the Scalloped Oval puncxh and mounted it on a piece of Old Olive cardstock punched out with the Wide Oval punch.

Stay tuned on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday for more of the cards.

Enjoy!
