This is my week to be the hostess over at Freshly Made Sketches, and I really hope you’ll like the sketch and play along. I have been having fun designing collage-style cards lately, so that is how I designed the sketch.
And since Valentine’s Day is right around the corner, I decided to make another card for the occasion. I pulled out my Groovy Love stamp set, and then just kept pulling more and more sets off the shelf. I think I ended up using an eclectic mix of four stamp sets. I was out of control!
I started by making a watercolor wash on some watercolor paper using Pink Pirouette and Pool Party inks. Once that was dry, I stamped the row of hearts from Birthday Blooms and the row of sideways chevrons from You’re So Lovely with Melon Mambo ink, and added some washi tapes.
The focal heart is from Groovy Love and was stamped with Melon Mambo ink. The pretty yellow circle on the layer beneath it is from You’re So Lovely and was stamped with Daffodil Delight ink.
The sentiment is from the Bloomin’ Love stamp set and was embossed with White Stampin’ Emboss powder on Basic Black card stock.
I hope you’ll play along and create your own card with the sketch! I love seeing how other people interpret the sketch and use it in their own ways. Meanwhile, be sure to stop by the Freshly Made Sketches site and see what the rest of the design team made. You’ll be wowed by their creativity!
Enjoy your Wednesday! Thanks for stopping by!

I think Jen has been secretly abducted by aliens and replaced with an impostor because this sketch has six circles, and Jen has a strong aversion to circles. That’s the only way I can explain it. 😉 Regardless, I love the sketch and thought of several different ways to approach it.
