Snow Front Sympathy — FMS466

We’re getting close to Christmas and the end of the year, and we have one last 2020 sketch for you at Freshly Made Sketches. Our hostess this week is our talented friend who flies the friendly skies, Jennifer Timko. Take a look at this classic sketch that she has for us:

This has been a rough week. My 94 year-old grandmother died of Covid-19 complications last week and an aunt passed away after her two year battle with ALS. I needed to make some cards and wanted them to have a wintery feel, so I pulled the Snow Front stamp set from my shelf, which I hadn’t used in quite a while.

I started this one by applying some Seaside Spray ink onto a piece of Whisper White card stock with a blender brush. I then stamped the different tree images using Old Olive and Pear Pizzazz inks, sometimes stamping off and sometimes not to add a little variation in the color. A piece of Seaside Spray card stock was run through the Big Shot with the Subtle 3d embossing folder.

We hope you’ll join us and create your own cards using the sketch! We love to see what you make as we browse the gallery. We’re leaving this challenge open until January 4th, so that gives you extra time during this busy season and will provide you an opportunity to use any new crafting supplies that may be in your Christmas stocking. Meanwhile, be sure to stop by the Freshly Made Sketches site to see what the design team has whipped up for your viewing pleasure.

Enjoy your Wednesday and have a wonderful Christmas! Thanks for stopping by!

Snow Front Scene — FMS408

Another Wednesday has arrived, which means it’s time for a new sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches.  And this week, our talented pilot friend, Jennifer Timko, is our hostess.  Take a look at this great sketch:

This sketch is so versatile.  I think you could do just about anything with it.  I decided to pull out a new stamp set that I have been itching to ink up, Snow Front.  I grew up hating art class in school.  I couldn’t draw or paint at all and I really thought I had no artistic ability at all.  But then I discovered stamping about twenty years ago, and now I know that you don’t have to have any drawing talent to be artistic.  We can create little works of art with our stamps.  And this set is perfect for that!

 

This set has such fun images with which to play.  I only used a few of them, and I’m looking forward to using the others now.

There are no sentiments in this set, so I used one from the Christmas Gleaming set.  I like the pop of color the red sentiment strip adds.

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!
