It’s time for another new sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches, and this week it is my turn to provide the sketch. Of all my shaped dies, I find that I use ovals the least. I’m not sure why that is because I love how they look, but I think I just forget about them. So in order to give them a little love, they are the focal shape in the sketch this week.
I knew I wanted a large sentiment to be the focal image in the oval, so I reached for one in the Christmas Pines stamp set. It is paired with some plaid paper from Merry Little Christmas. I love this paper, and I love how it makes the red sentiment stand out even more.
Some Lemon Lime Twist greenery and Red Glimmer Paper berries were die-cut using the Pretty Pines thinlits dies. Some rhinestone basic jewels were colored with a Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends marker.
We hope you’ll join us and create your own card using the sketch. We love to look through the gallery and see how you use the sketch each week. Meanwhile, be sure to hop on over to the Freshly Made Sketches site to see what the design team has created for your inspiration.
Enjoy your Wednesday! Thanks for stopping by!
