Freshly Made Sketches 386 Weekly Challenge

Oh, I love the simplicity of this week's sketch because we know the simpler the sketch - the more options you have for the card.  I was actually playing with some new layering flower dies and when I got the first flower together I knew what I was doing for this card.

Here's my interpretation of this week's sketch.


I love how this came out with beautiful flowers and rich colors.  I don't use dies very often so I was so pleased with the results.   I think I will start using dies more often...LOL!

Supplies used in my card:

  • Pattern Paper:  All My Love Designer Series Paper by Stampin Up!
  • Lovely Lipstick, Flirty Flamingo, Pear Pizzaz and Soft Sea Foam Cardstocks by Stampin Up!
  • White, pink and gray cardstock from my stash.
  • Party Panda Stamp Set (Retired) for sentiment by Stampin Up!

  • 110lb Card base by Recollections

The Paper Players Sketch Challenge: PP439

This week I did the Paper Players weekly challenge.   Looking back through their posts, they have had some very interesting challenges and I'm ready to jump on board.


My 33rd Wedding Anniversary was on the 3rd so I was in the mood for Love.   


I always love the combinations of red and browns.   This card is beautiful to me.   Hope you enjoy it.
