Sketch Frenzy Friday--One of Those Days!!!

Hi Stampers:

Well, I finally got my SFF card done and posted at 12:30 this morning. Every thing that could keep me from posting HAPPENED to slow me down!! But it's now done! Here is our sketch from Patrice Herrera:

And here is my creation:

The picture is not extremely clear because my camera decided that the SD card drive is not going to work anymore, so I had to use my BlackBerry to take the picture and then futz (technical term!) to try to make it sharper. Here's what I used:

• Basic gray card stock


• Twitterpated DSP


• Twitterpated buttons


• Blossom punch


• Pleated ribbon


• Loving Thoughts stamp set


• 1" square punch to make the banner ends on the greeting strip


• Dimensionals

On the whole I am pretty pleased with the design of my card! Now CLICK OVER TO MARIA'S BLOG to see what she has created. And why not join us? You can upload your creation here: SKETCH FRENZY FRIDAY BLOG.

Sketch Frenzy Friday--A Sale-A-Bration Birthday Card

Hi Stampers:

Well, it's Friday again and time for another GREAT sketch! Today's sketch is by Angela Walters and here it is:

And here's my card and I'm pretty happy with it!

When I first saw the sketch, I knew immediately what I was going to do with it--totally unusual for me! The Ice Cream Parlor colors and accessories are so bright and cheerful, that I just had to use them along with the So Happy for You and Punch Bunch stamp sets. ALL of these items are available as free items--you get 1 with every $50 purchase. OK-so on to the colors--Pacific Point cardstock base. The HB scalloped square image was stamped in Pacific Point, Melon Mambo, Old Olive, and Daffodil Delight on Whisper White cardstock, then punched out with the Scallop Square Punch. The birthday wishes sentiment was stamped in Pacific Point on Whisper White, then cut out, corner rounded and sponged with Pacific Point. All of the stamped items were mounted on the card base with Stampin' Dimensionals. I then embellished with Ice Cream Parlor buttons and ribbon. The card was easy, peasy after I spent a couple of hours searching for my Pacific Point cardstock. Organization and neatness are not my strong points.
