It’s time for a new sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches, and it is my turn to assume the hostess duties. I wanted to provide a focal panel that provides versatility — you can fill it with many small images, one large image or just a large sentiment, or figure out a creative use of the space. Here’s a look at the sketch:

My elder daughter is turning 24 next month and I thought the beautiful Wildflower Birthday bundle would be perfect with which to make her card.

Starting with a Soft Sea Foam card base, I added a piece of Wildflower Birthday Specialty DSP. I cut out the “24” from some gold foil using the Birthday Celebration Dies, and stamped the rest of the sentiment using the coordinating Birthday Celebration stamp set. The cute little cupcake is one of the die-cuts included with the dsp.

I added some Party Dots and stamped the banner at the top using another stamp from the stamp set and gold embossing powder. For a fun touch, I embossed the banner on the envelope as well.

I love how easy it is to personalize cards with this stamp set. It will be perfect for graduation cards too!

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!
