Rainy Days — FMS580

It’s time for another new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches, and this week our hostess is Jen Mitchell, my favorite Bay Stater stamper. Take a look at her fun sketch:

When I saw this sketch, the little critters from the Playing in the Rain stamp set came to mind as I thought I could fit different images in the four panels of the sketch. And then I thought I could make a card for my daughter who loves rainy days.

These images are a combination of images cut from the Rain or Shine dsp collection and the February Paper Pumpkin kit. I arranged the images on a piece of the rainy dsp.

I stamped the sentiment and cut it out so that it would fit better on the panel for the sketch.

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 made for your inspiration.

Enjoy your Wednesday! Thanks for stopping by!

Sweet Turtle — FMS577

We’re back with another new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches, and this week our sketch comes from the Heartland compliments of Judy Rozema. Take a look at her fun sketch:

I needed a card to send in a care package for my college daughter. Spring Break is over and she is back in the thick of things in that final semester. It’s hard to believe we’ll have another one finished with college in just a few weeks! However, the checkbook won’t get much relief as our youngest will be off to college in the Fall. She still hasn’t decided where she’s going yet, and her choices range from schools that are 250 miles away to 1,500 miles away. It’s a tough decision, and I just pray she’ll pick the one that will make her happiest (and maybe the one that is the closest and the least expensive). 🙂

I hadn’t used the Playing in the Rain set yet, and the turtle in that set is adorable! I decided to use him in one of the focal circles and use the flowers stamp for the other two circles.

I colored the images with my alcohol markers and used some of the Rain or Shine dsp. The little sun is from February’s Paper Pumpkin kit, which coordinates with this stamp set and dsp as well. The sentiment is from the Happy Labels stamp set.

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 made for your inspiration.
