DOswts#439 Sketch Inspiration Hop

 

Hello again creators,

2024 has been a year. We have survived so far. We only have 3 more weeks, and we can turn over a new leaf with 2025. The Chinese year of the snake. A year of wisdom, charm and elegance.

For the last post of the year, of course we need a sketch. Remember there is elegance in simplicity. A great way to close out 2024.

Here is my interpretation:

Here's the recipe:

Misty Moonlight cardstock - cut 8.5" X 5.5" - scored at 4.25" plus scrap for sentiment

Very Vanilla cardstock - cut 4" X 5.25" plus scrap for sentiment

Iconic Celebrations DSP 

Heartfelt Hexagon stamps and punch

Stylish shapes Dies - the largest circle

Satin Ribbon

Memento Tuxedo Black

Cut circle from DSP. Adhere circle off center on Very Vanilla mat. Trim off excess. Adhere mat to Misty Moonlight card base. Punch a Hexagon from both the Very Vanilla and the Misty Moonlight cardstock scraps. Stamp your sentiment on the Very Vanilla. Cut the Misty Moonlight in half. Adhere the pieces to the Very Vanilla evenly. Apply adhesive to the front of mat to create a "V" with ribbon. Attach Sentiment with dimensionals. 

This card layout can be used for any holiday including birthdays. Give it a try. Until next year, happy creating.

#DOswts438 Sketch Inspiration Hop

 

Hello Creators!

Fall or Autumn has finally arrived in North Texas. Woot! I was finished with 100s and 90s by September. We are expecting our first freeze next week. I hope it actually happens. Enough negativity! Let gets some positivity with a new and exciting sketch.

Is this interesting or what? Here is my intepretation:

Here's the recipe:

Night of Navy cardstock - cut 8.5" X 5.5" - scored at 4.25" and 3" X 1.75" and 1.75" X .75"

Designer Series Paper: Cut one at 1.75" X 3.5" and one at 1.75" X 2.5" 

White cardstock: Cut one at 3" X 1.75" and one at 1.75" X .75"

Stamp set: Citrus Blooms

Ink: Tuxedo Black

 

I used Mediterranean Blooms paper and cut an orange for my focal point. The small Night of Navy and White cardstocks were offset layer to the same size pieces.

This is a great sketch as always. My second line (in corporate jargon) or my upline's upline (Stampin' Up! jargon) is no dang creative! I love her sketches!!

Until next time, happy creating!
