Touch of Ink – Thinking of You

For 2021, I am creating a new and different challenge every weekend. This week is a Simple Sketch.  It has been a busy week for me and I only had time to create one card for this sketch instead of the three I normally make.  My card is a hybrid and would fall under theContinue reading “Touch of Ink – Thinking of You”

Touch of Ink – Best Wishes

The Sketch is for a Slim-Line card.  The first I have made ofContinue reading “Touch of Ink – Best Wishes”

WRAPPED BOUQUET – Friendship Card

Sunday Sketch – SS035 I waited until today to make this card.  Anticipating that the “Man in Brown” would be bringing me my new stuff and I was so glad he came early!

Art Gallery – Thank You

Today I created a card for the Freshly Made Sketch Challenge – FMS466.  I also chose to use the colors for December over at the SU! Color Challenge. January 1st – the first day of the new year and it is so dreary…all day cloud and rain.  I needed a little cheer me up, soContinue reading “Art Gallery – Thank You”

ENJOY THE MOMENT – Simple and Good Things

CASE-ING TUESDAY #284 Challenge For today’s card, I chose to keep it all very simple as the Sketch was very straight forward. Which stamp set to use? Which patterned paper to use? Which color to choose? Those are the questions I ask myself as I start to create a card.  Having a sketch as aContinue reading “ENJOY THE MOMENT – Simple and Good Things”

Blossoms in Bloom – Happy Birthday

Today I created a card for the Global Design Challenge – GDP272.  Case the Designer: Kerstin Kreis. My take away from Kerstin’s card is the use of subtle colors, blending, a side die-cut border and a circular element. I chose to use the Ornate Borders Dies for the side die-cut and Blushing Bride and SoftContinue reading “Blossoms in Bloom – Happy Birthday”
