We have a new sketch for you over at Freshly Made Sketches, and this week our hostess is our favorite Coloradan, Kim Singdahlsen. Take a look at this fun sketch:
I decided to take the opportunity to make a Mother’s Day card with this one. And since I just received a couple of new sets from the upcoming catalog, which will be released in just two short weeks, I decided to use one of them.
Spring is in the air in North Texas and the Sending Smiles bundle has some gorgeous floral images that are perfect to celebrate it. I stamped the flowers and cut them out with the coordinating dies. I used a couple of the new In Colors on the flowers — Orchid Oasis (which is also the card base color) and Sweet Sorbert ( which is the pretty red).
The floral arrangement was placed on a piece of card stock cut out with a Scalloped Contours Die and placed on another piece of white card stock cut with the Stitched Greenery Die. A sprinkling of Iridescent Rhinestone Basic Jewels and a sentiment from an old set finished it off.
We hope you’ll join us and create your own card using the sketch! We love to see what you make as we browse the gallery each week. Meanwhile be sure to stop by the Freshly Made Sketches site to see what the design team has made for your inspiration!
Enjoy your Wednesday! Thanks for stopping by!
