Hello and we're back with a new sketch
Awesome sketch by Jen N!
Before I get to my card, I wanted to say "see ya around" bloggie land to
I know that I'll see you gals but I will miss your constant Seize the Sketch inspiration!!!
We also want to
welcome our new teamies
We're thrilled to have you on the team!!!
I gotta tell you, the Seize the Sketch team is awesome, such a fun group of gals!
Okay, ready for how the sketch inspired me?
Here you go:
I generally tend to stick to one paper manufacturer per card...mixing and matching patterns from a single collection. This is how I make it easier on myself, rather than sorting through my bazillion paper pads, yes, I literally have that many.
The Basic Grey Fresh Cut collection sings to me...it is so happy & springy!
I love that PTI die, but man, it gives me a mental workout. I'm a 'carefree' crafter = paper & embellies are typically flying around when I craft. I have to concentrate and purposefully save the pop outs....see the interior of the 'Y', 'o', 'A' & 'R'? Dude some of those pieces are microscopic when you have old lady eyes! It's so worth the work though, I love the contrast of the frame and the text.
I used vellum banner flags on the top of my card and finished it off with my very last Fresh Cut bloom. I'm ordering more of those puppies, they rock {thanks Sherry!}.
Kimberly is the one that RAK'd me the Fresh Cut 6x6 paper pad and I've managed to crank out a total of 6 cards, including today's. Love how the 6x6'ers give you that ability....I still have plenty of paper left to make more cards!
I hope that you'll play along with us!
