Kite Delight Birthday — FMS525

It’s time for a new sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches, and this week our hostess is the incredibly talented Karren Johnson, who has mad ink skills. Take a look at this great sketch, which offers so many possibilities:

I needed to make a birthday card for a sweet friend and I thought the Kite Delight stamp set would be perfect for the occasion.

I started by blending some Pool Party ink on a piece of white card stock. I then stamped the three kites on another piece of white card stock and colored them with my alcohol markers before cutting them out. The kite tails and sun were stamped and colored as well before popping the kites up with dimensionals.

I cut out some So Saffron card stock with a scalloped die from the Penned Flowers Dies collection, and placed it under the sides of the focal panel. All of this was placed on a piece of dsp from the recent Sale-a-Bration offering, the Sunshine & Rainbows dsp collection.

We hope you’ll join us and create your own card using the sketch. We love seeing what you create 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!

Uplifting Kite — FMS520

We’re back with a new sketch for you over at Freshly Made Sketches, and this week our hostess is the oh-so-talented Jen Mitchell. Take a look at this fun sketch that makes use of lots of great shapes – a circle, square, star and rectangle. Of course, you can substitute any shape for another.

I thought this would be a great opportunity to use a new stamp set, Kite Delight.

I started by cutting out a circle from the Sunshine & Rainbows dsp, which is currently a free Sale-a-Bration item. I love this dsp! It has such happy colors and patterns.

I then stamped the kite and colored it with some alcohol markers before cutting it out with my paper snips. The sentiment is from the same stamp set.

We hope you’ll join us and create your own card using the sketch! We love seeing 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!
