Freshly Made Sketches #520

  Happy new sketch day at Freshly Made Sketches


I love these fun sea creatures from Reverse Confetti! As usual, I have a little different take on the sketch, using my sea images to make the vertical panel piece, as well as keeping an A2 size, rather than square.

Freshly Made Sketches #519

I love how a sketch can get your creativity going. Usually I have several ideas, and have to narrow it down. That is the case with today's sketch from Jen T and Freshly Made Sketches!

I had a lot of different ideas, but not a lot of time, as I have been visiting family in the Seattle area this last week. I chose this alcohol ink (Ranger) background on Duralar that was in my unfinished projects box, and created a fun big sentiment with Wilted Violet DOX ink, and new to me stamps/dies from Simon Says Stamp. I love the bits of gold alloy in the background.

Freshly Made Sketches #518

It's Wednesday and time for a new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches! I have the pleasure of hosting this week, and have offered up a simple sketch with a lot of playing space. The circle can be any shape you like.

Isn't this little snail just amazing? He is part of the Love is in the Air set from Reverse Confetti. I colored him and his cute envelopes with Copic markers, and then cut him out with the coordinating die. I stenciled a circle of hearts (Create A Smile stamps) using Kitsch Flamingo DOX ink. I made a front panel with Along the Dotted Lines Cover Plate (RC), and cut a circle out to show the stencil and for my little snail to hang out in.  

The sentiment is from the same stamp set, stamped in VersaFine Clair Nocturne. Some rose metallic thread (SU!), a few sequins (Pretty Pink Posh) and he is all done!

I hope you will join our sketch challenge, and add your creations to our gallery! This challenge will end at 3:00 EST time on Monday, January 17. Be sure to take a peek at the gorgeous cards my teammates have made on the FMS blog to inspire you!

Freshly Made Sketches #517

It's time for a new sketch at Freshly Made SketchesIt's our first for 2022 and Amy has created a fun one!


First I started with a Cuttlebug embossing folder on black cardstock. Next I cut my hearts out of two Gel Press prints using some dies from Paper Smooches, and arranged them according to the sketch. I stamped my sentiment (Unity Stamp Co.) on one of the prints, and bubble cut around it, popping it up with foam tape. Finally, I mounted the panel on a bright pink to match the hearts. 

I hope you will join our sketch challenge, and add your creations to our gallery! This challenge will end at 3:00 EST time on Monday, January 10. Be sure to take a peek at the gorgeous cards my teammates have made on the FMS blog to inspire you!
