Hey Everyone
Wednesday’s seem to come around in the blink of an eye! It feels like the weeks are flying by and before we know it, Christmas will be here! We have a new sketch challenge at Freshly Made Sketches for you. Our sketch designer is Jen Brum. Jen’s cards are creative, clean and so very striking. Head over to her blog and take a look.
I’ve had a couple of requests for wedding cards lately and have non in my stash. I chose Jen’s fabulous sketch to start off my wedding card collection.
My leaves are created using my Seasonal Layers Thinlits Dies. The colours I’ve chosen for my card are Sahara Sand, Old Olive and Whisper White. To create the larger leaves, I inked up a silicone mat with Sahara Sand and Hello Honey Inks. I then spritzed the ink with water and applied some Whisper White Cardstock directly on to the mat. Once the cardstock dried, I then ran the cardstock through my Bigshot with the larger leaf die.
I stamped the ink splatter stamp from Swirly Bird in Sahara Sand Ink and stamped on to my card base. I then added my sentiment, the strips of cardstock and some Linen Thread. To add a little bit of wedding bling, I then finished off my card with a sequin.
The Clean Team at Freshly Made Sketches have created gorgeous cards to inspire you. Pop over to the blog and see their creations.
Thanks for stopping by.
Cheers
Narelle
