Sketch Saturday #559 Polkadoodles...

Hey,

Happy Saturday to you and welcome to the latest sketch for the Sketch Saturday challenge - I am not up on the blog today, as I got my weeks confused..maybe because the sketch is by me. I am SO vain that whenever one of my sketches appears, I think it's my week!

But as I made a card, I'd join in anyway.

Our sponsor this week is Polkadoodles and they are offering a prize of  3 digis from their store.

Here's the sketch...

We had a choice of x3 images to play with this time and I loved this cute little girl (image 694)

I stamped and coloured the image and then die-cut the fancy border our of polka dot paper. I added a thin glittery silver strip to match the sketch. I am super happy that I got to use the 'sea you soon' sentiment - works so well here.

Not bad for a card that wasn't meant to be ;)

I can't wait to see what you do with the sketch, but first check out what the rest of the DT have made over at Sketch Saturday.

Challenge ends 19th April 7pm GMT / 2pm EST

4 Cards, 1 Stamp Set: Pink Fresh Studio

Hey,

It has been a while since I did a 4 cards, 1 stamp set post.

Before we left for Atlantic City, I pulled out a new Pink Fresh Studio stamp set ' Lovely Borders 2' for a little play -

I really liked this quirky set, I thought the borders would make simple fun cards.

I die-cut watercolour paper and stamped four of the borders, each with slightly different spacing. I watercoloured all of the borders using distress inks and a paintbrush.

The sentiments got pulled from a variety of stamp sets.

They are so CAS, I really like them and they were super easy to make, which is always nice!

CAS Mix-up February...Corrugated Valentine's...

Hey,

So I thought I would play along again with CAS Mix-up challenge - February is fun -

I pulled out some old DCVW corrugated card in grey. I instantly decided this would be a Valentine's card...

I die-cut it using a Taylored Expressions heart border die.

I also die-cut the white panel using an MFT wonky die.

I splattered my card with pink ink and affixed the border using pink staples for a bit of a match.

I stamped the sentiment (Clearly Besotted) and added 2 of the hearts that came out of the die.

Pretty CAS and covers off the main two requirements, the your choice elements are die-cutting and splatter.

So much fun I might play again.
