Freshly Made Sketches 729

 Today, I'm playing along with Freshly Made Sketches. I was stuck on an idea for a card - I was on a Zoom with some crafty friends, and so i asked them to tell me what stamp company I should use to make something. One suggested Lawn Fawn, and one suggested Waffle Flower. I got my stamps out, but was still stuck, and realised I needed a sketch to get me out of my rut! Freshly Made Sketches to the rescue!


Thanks for visiting :) 

 

 

 

Foiled 21st card

 Another card I made for my niece's 21st - I use a press plate from Alex Syberia on my Glimmer machine to foil the card, and then stenciled over the flowers in the colours chosen as the theme for Caitlin's party.

 My niece, Caitlin, recently turned 21. She really likes ducks, so I knew I would have to incorporate these duckies into her card.

Altenew Ambassador: Ornamental Poppies Just Because

Today, I'm sharing a card using the Ornamental Poppies die set along with the Fancy Greetings stamp set. I used two of the newer colours of the Crafty Necessities cardstock, Sagestone and Sandy Blush, and I added some shading using Coral Berry and Grapevine inks.
