Sketch Challenge Week of May 6, 2019

Y'all know Pinterest is my weakness.  I can spend hours going down some rabbit holes of awesomeness.  Well, I've discovered card sketches...yup...card sketches.  What's awesome about them?  The thing is, it's amazing to see the creativity and the final projects that different people come up with using the same idea.  Join me weekly as I pick a sketch from multiple sources such as Pinterest or Splitcoast Stampers and share what I've come up with.  I invite you to use that sketch and share your projects with me on my Facebook page.

No photo description available.So last week's sketch challenge I found on Pinterest courtesy of Sunday Sketches

My card making style is pretty simple.  I don't do too many layered pieces, so this was a bit of a challenge for me.  What I enjoyed most about the Sunday Sketches, is that the designer provides the card dimensions and I don't have to do too much guessing about what the layered pieces are.  My only "challenge" was deciding on what stamps, ink, designer series paper to use in that sketch...whew...thank you Jesus!

So after all that, here's a look at what I created using Sketch # SS015.

Hello, all! Thank you for joining me for another Stamping with Friends Blog Hop! For those of you who are unfamiliar, Stamping with Friends is a group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators who share our love of card making with you through monthly blog hops with various themes.  This month, we are sharing with you sneak peeks from the January - June 2022 Mini Catalog.  If you've come from  Mo Rootes'  blog, then you saw her project using the  Stampin' Up!

I hope these and the other projects serve to inspire your creativity.   Speaking of catalogs, if you don't have a Stampin' Up! demonstrator and would like a catalog, reach out to me.

Stampin' with Friends Technique Blog Hop - Masking

Hi there, Stamping Friends!  It's time for another Stamping with Friends Blog Hop.  As you know, Stamping with Friends is a group of Stampin' Up! Independent Demonstrators who enjoy paper crafting, creating cards, and other projects to share with each other and with you. If you've arrived from Karen's blog, welcome!  This time, the theme is to create a card or project based on a favorite technique.  There are sooooo many techniques that I love but with this project, I'm going to focus mainly on two.  Can you guess what one of them is? Yup, you guessed it...masking!  There're so many things you can do with this technique from: simple masking to creating seamless backgrounds and adding depth...hmmm, I think I've decided to do a blog series focusing on the different things you can do with masking. For this post, I chose to start with a simple spotlight masking technique. Let me show you how I created this card. Now I incorporated several other techniques (dry ...

Stampin' with Friends Blog Hop Vine Design

Hi, so glad you decided to pop in to see what I have in store for you today.   This is my inaugural blog hop with Stamping with Friends. Stamping with Friends is a group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators who enjoy sharing our love of paper crafting in general and for me, more specifically, card making with you. The group hosts two hops every month.   The theme for this hop showcases retiring sets, bundles, or products from the January - June 2021 mini catalog that retires at the end of this month.  I chose to feature the Vine Design Bundle. I was drawn to this bundle for many reasons; first, the die cuts are elegant and can stand alone to create a beautiful, simple yet elegant card, second, the sentiments also make it a very versatile set that covers multiple occasions, and third, I could see the possibilities with one of my favorite masking and blending techniques. I hope you enjoy this hop and the cards I created to share with you. This first card highlights the m...
