It’s time for another new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches, and this week our hostess is our favorite mountain hiking Canadian, Jen Brum. Take a look at her fun sketch:

I recently got the new Saying Thanks card kit. I love the colorful card bases in them. I thought one of the bases would be perfect for a birthday card, so that was my starting point for this sketch.

I stamped the Birthday Wishes with some Versamark ink and embossed it with white embossing powder on a strip of black card stock. The Sending part of the sentiment was die-cut using a die from the coordinating dies.

The top black strip above the sentiment was die-cut using a die from the Blossoming Happiness set. A few sequins were added as embellishments.

This was a quick and easy card. What took me the longest was trying to remember where I put the adhesive sheets, which make it so much easier to adhere skinny die-cut sentiments. I knew I had some somewhere, but I hadn’t used them in so long (because I can never remember where they are). That’s a sure sign I have too much stuff in my stamp room!

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 created for your inspiration.

Enjoy your Wednesday! Thanks for stopping by!
