It’s time for another challenge at Freshly Made Sketches, and this week I have the pleasure and privilege of serving as the hostess. I have a pretty simple and clean sketch for you that I think would be pretty easy to dress up or keep super clean — however you want to use it.
I pulled out my Watercolor Wishes card kit and used some of the element from the kit. This kit is amazing! I love everything in it, including the stamp set. I chose one of the card bases in the kit, which has a lovely Pool Party watercolor wash already on the card. The flowers and leaves are printed, die cut, and ready to go. All I had to do was arrange them. The Calypso Coral banner is a sticker, and the sequins were also included in the kit.
Actually, the only stamping I did on this card was the sentiment. Pretty easy, huh? I love how these kits give you great sample ideas, which you can follow to the T, or you can mix and match the elements and make your own cards however you want.
I hope you’ll play along with the sketch this week. We love seeing what you create, and I’m looking forward to seeing how you interpret the sketch. You should head on over to the Freshly Made Sketches site to see what the design team made this week. They are inspiring and always amaze me.
Enjoy your Wednesday! Thanks for stopping by!
I have another sneak peek of some new products in the Holiday Catalog, which will be released on September 1. There were two stamp sets with coordinating dies that immediately went to the top of my wish list, and I’ve used one of them today — the Howl-o-Ween Treat stamp set and coordinating Boo to You Framelits Dies. I love Halloween, but I’m not a fan of the scary stuff. I like cute Halloween stuff. And this set is perfectly cute.
Super simple and lots of room for creativity with this one!
I’ve been on vacation with my family and have missed the past couple of challenges. In fact, I haven’t stamped in over three weeks (and that’s a LONG time for me). I was worried I wouldn’t remember how to make a card. But Karren’s sketch made it easier to jump back in and get my feet wet.

I had just received my new Paper Pumpkin kit in the mail, and I’ve been so busy preparing for Convention this week, that I didn’t have much time to make a card for this sketch. But then it hit me that this kit would work perfectly with this sketch.
I took some creative liberties with this sketch, and substituted a butterfly for one of the squares. I am so in love with the Watercolor Wings stamp set and coordinating dies, that I could use this set every day.
I needed a baby card for a sweet baby boy, so I pulled out a new set called Made with Love. I stamped the image on watercolor paper and used my aquapainter to color the sweet onesie image.
I pulled a new stamp set, You’re Sublime, off my shelf. I think all of the images in this set are so cute. And I love the punny sentiments.
I hadn’t cleaned up my desk after making my last card, and I had so much fun using the Watercolor Wings stamp set that I decided to use it again for this card. I just changed up the color scheme for this one.
