#DOswts445 Sketch Inspiration Hop

 

Hello again creators!

My last post I mentioned how it was still spring here in North Texas. Sadly, it ended yesterday. We are in the 90s now. Keep your fingers crossed that the 100s are still a little way off. Thank you.

On this sketch I used a little more Starlighter creativity than normal, but I still think the heart of the sketch is still there.

Here is the recipe:

Basic Black cardstock - cut 5.5" X 8.5" - scored at 4.25"

Mixed Media Floral DSP - cut 3" X 5.5"

Focal point - Mixed Media Florals colored with Stampin' Blends

More Messages for sentiment

Old Olive cardstock for greenery

Opal Rounds - embellishments

I love tulips! This card really spoke to me. I hope you give the sketch a try.

Happy creating!

Hello again creators!

Spring is here finally. Our flood waters are receding. I believe our drought is broken. Thank goodness!

This sketch will put you in the mood for spring if you aren't already there.

Don't you just love that blossom focal point? I did!

Here's the recipe:

Thick White cardstock - cut 8.5" X 5.5" - scored at 4.25"

Strawberry Slush cardstock - scrap for sentiment layer

DSP - Floral Impressions - cut 1 piece 3.5" X 3.5" square and 1 piece 3.25" X 3.25" square. You can use two different pieces of DSP. I used the same piece with the "B" side as the bigger square.

Stamp sets - More Messages and Impressions Abloom

Inks - Strawberry Slush, Pretty in Pink, and Memento Tuxedo Black

Embellishments - Strawberry Slush & Pretty in Pink Gems

The Impressions Abloom is a new Online Exclusive. It released on 6 May 25. I think it's beautiful and fell in love with it immediately. 

Happy creating!

Hello creators!

It's that time again for another sketch. Woot!

Sale-A-Bration is still going on until February 28. I use some free DSP with a $60 purchase. Are you thinking, what? $60. I understand this is the first price rise in 25 years. I hope we don't have another for another 25 years.

 This DSP just made me happy in the middle of winter.

Recipe: Early Expresso cardstock - cut 8.5" X 5.5" - score at 4.25"

Fruit Salad DSP - cut 4" X 5.25" - cut on the offset diagonal

White Frayed Grosgrain ribbon - cut 5.5" and another piece long enough for you to tie a bow

Scrap basic white cardstock - 3.5" X .75"

Additional items:

Plaster Painting 3D embossing folder

Thoughtful Expressions stamps

Memento Tuxedo Black Ink

This card will bring joy to whomever you send it to.

Happy Creating!
