It’s time for another new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches, and this week it comes courtesy of Jen Mitchell, our crafty Bay Stater. Take a look at what she has for us:
It’s been a while since I’ve been able to craft. We’ve had some tough family situations and then two weeks ago I experienced a herniated disc in my neck. That has been a whole new level of pain for me! I got a steroid injection on Friday and it has helped quite a bit. The doctor said it could take a week or two to get the maximum relief, so I’m trying to be patient. Since my crafting skills are a little rusty, I decided to take an easy approach with this card and let the dsp do the work for me.
The Snowy Scenes dsp came to the rescue. I cut out the cute snow globe with the coordinating Snowy Wonder dies. The dsp used on the card base and the strip across the center also came from Snowy Scenes. The sentiment came from the Reindeer Fun stamp set.
I think I missed a layer on the sketch. I’m just going to blame it on my foggy brain due to the pain meds I’m on.
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!
