Freshly Made Sketches #33







Today's card is inspired by the sketch over at freshly made sketches. I began with a piece of printed Yellow chevron cardstock.  I cut a Textured White panel to which I adhered a Pear Pizzaz border and Old Olive polka dot ribbon.  The banner mat was cut from some Par Pizazz patterned paper and layered with dimensionals.  The round scallop circle was cut using Real Red cardstock, the ribbon rosette is Cherry Cobbler wide, striped grosgrain ribbon.  In the center of the rosette is a piece of Cherry Cobbler polka dot paper,  a green patterned brad was added to that. 

Thank you for stopping by!

This is my entry for the Mojo Monday challlenge.  This has been a very busy week, with working 2 jobs, weight training, and writing a final exam, I have had very little time to relax and craft.  I was unable to come up with my own idea and cased this card from Teresa Kline/Paperie Blooms .  Now that I am done my course I have a little more free time. Until next time.

Summer Smooches

Today I am entering my card in two different challenges.  I always like to pick a color challenge with a sketch challenge. I chose the color combo from  Colour Q #130 and the sketch from  Just-Add-Ink . I love this new stamp set Summer Smooches, that will be available April 01-30.  It's super cute a quite versatile. I began my creation a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" piece of Tempting Turquoise cardstock.  The first layer is Certainly Celery and measures 4" x 5 1/4".  The second layer is an embossed piece of Whisper White cardstock and measures 3 3/4" x 5".  I stamped the tulips using Melon Mambo, and the other image using Tempting Turquoise, Certainly Celery and Daffodil delight. Here are the sketch and colors:
