Sketch Saturday #764 – Opt distress something on your card

Hello there, it’s time for another Sketch Saturday Challenge and do we have a great sketch and optional twist for you!

Again, I’m adding to my Christmas card stash with a card using an adorable elf from the MFT ‘Santa’s Elves’ stamp set that I’ve coloured with my Stampin Blends and cut out with the matching dies. I added some puffy paint to the hat and sleeves and popped him up over from black and white diagonal DSP.

As you can see, you don’t have to use the shapes from the sketch – I’ve replaced the circles with a tree, a present and the efl.

AAA Cards #278 – Sketch

Hello there, it’s time for another challenge over at AAA Cards and do we have a great sketch for you!

I really loved the sketch so kept to the 3 squares. I masked off the shapes and then clear heat embossed the snowflakes from the Kandan ‘Reindeer & Snowflakes’ stamp set. The sentiment is from Uniko Studios ‘Rustic Christmas’ and I used distress inks from Tim Holtz in Weathered Wood, Iced Spruce and Stormy Sky.

I then fussy cut 1 of the flowers from the left over piece and die cut some leaves from the Satmpin Up ‘Forever Fern’ die set.

Sketch Saturday #763 – opt make it a sympathy card

Hello there, it’s time for another Sketch Saturday Challenge and do we have a great sketch for you!

I’m still in need of Christmas cards, so I didn’t go with the optional theme. I used some DSP from Stampin Up called ‘Joy of Christmas’ on the top panel of my card and then the reverse side on my tag. I had a glittery dove in my stash which was perfect for the bottom of my tag. I typed my sentiment on my PC and addit and some thread to the tag and my card was done.
