It’s time for a new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches! In keeping with the spirit of the Olympics, which starts this week, our sketch comes from the host country of France courtesy of Cecile Ribon. If they gave out medals for using die-cuts to make the most beautiful cards, Cecile would win the gold hands down! Take a look at her fun sketch:

When I first saw this sketch, my thoughts immediately went to the ephemera packages. I could picture birthday candles for the narrow rectangles in the sketch and some birthday cake for the circle and flower images in the sketch. And then I got a little carried away.

I started with a Pool Party card base and added the candles and cake as mentioned above. And then I kept adding. There are just so many fun things in these kits! I couldn’t help it!

I ended up using items from the Labels & Layers pack, the Something for Everything pack, and the Saying Something pack.

We hope you’ll join us and make 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!
