Card Sketch

Who’s ready for another Paper Craft Crew Challenge?!? Check out this fun card sketch –

There are a lot of fun elements in this layout and I stayed true to them in my creation.

I took my inspiration from the fun Paper Blooms DSP in the 2020 Sale-a-Bration brochure. I love the large blooms and fun color pallet. I added a strip of Rococo Rose print DSP. The sentiment is from the So Sentimental set.

A fun layout to send get well wishes to someone. Head on over to the Paper Craft Crew blog to see more inspiration using this layout and join in the fun!

Hello crafty friends! Welcome to the first Paper Craft Crew challenge of the new year. If you are unfamiliar with the Paper Craft Crew, it is a fun challenge blog that has weekly craft challenges to help jump start your creativity. I am honored to be part of the PCC Design Team. We are going to start the year with a fun vertical card sketch.

Of course, when I looked at this sketch I saw those 3 triangles and naturally I thought…Strawberries! (OK, so maybe I had some new products from Stampin’ Up!’s 2021 Sale-A-Bration on my desk that might have influenced that a bit.) I grabbed the Berry Blessings Stamp set and Berry Delightful DSP – which is a fun bundle you can earn for FREE with a $100 purchase from Jan. 5-Feb 28- and got to work. Here is my take on the sketch.

I cut out the large strawberries from one sheet of the DSP and used another for the background panel. I had a fun sheet of burlap paper that I found at Hobby Lobby and thought it was a great base for the berry trio.

Well, now I am longing for warm summer days and fresh strawberries…. Sigh, it will be awhile before that happens.

Come on over to the Paper Craft Crew blog and play along!

Hello my crafty friends! The Paper Craft Crew is here with another awesome card sketch challenge to inspire you.

I still had the Fluffy Friends – Holiday set by Taylored Expressions on my desk. I pulled out some old patterned paper and voila – this fun winter card came together.

I can’t get enough of that adorable little polar bear! Add in his little hat flying off as he speeds down the hill, and you have cuteness overload! Bear, sled and hat were colored with Copic markers. The sentiment is heat embossed on Kiwi Kiss card stock and fussy cut out.

You should check out The Paper Craft Crew blog for more inspirations from the Design Team. Then, make your own creation based on the sketch and share it with us! Thanks for stopping by! Join me again to shine a spotlight on creativity!

Hello, crafty friends! Can you believe it is December already? This crazy year time has seemed to drag and fly at the same time. Well, let’s kick off this month with a fun Paper Craft Crew challenge!

I am in full Christmas mode now, so naturally I had to pull out some new stamps to use on this sketch.

These fun trees from The Stamp Market are great for a non traditional color scheme. I also used some gorgeous inks and glitter paper from The Stamp Market. Fun, Fresh and Festive!

Welcome to this week’s Paper Craft Crew challenge. I hope you are ready to play along. Challenges are a great place to start if your crafty mojo has taken a hiatus. They are also fun to play along when the creative juices are flowing. Either way, you should give it a try! Today’s card sketch would be a great way to start!

As soon as I saw this sketch, I knew what I wanted to do with it. I just got the fun Coming Home bundle from Stampin’ Up! and thought the tall house was perfect for this sketch.

I colored the house with my Copic markers. I really like coloring. I find it very relaxing. Do you like to color? What is your favorite medium to work with? Why not grab it and create your own project using this sketch. Be sure to upload it and share on the Paper Craft Crew blog! We would love to see your take on this week’s challenge.

Hello, crafty friends! I’m happy to be back creating with the Paper Craft Crew for this week’s challenge. Today we have a fun horizontal sketch to inspire your creativity.

I was inspired by my daughter for this card.

She is an avid reader… thus the sentiment (from Taylored Expressions Simple Strips background), She loves the out doors…thus the tree (Stampin’ Up! Pine Woods dies) and sunset watercolor, She recently got married…thus the two hearts.

How does this sketch inspire you? Join the fun over at the Paper Craft Crew! Thanks for stopping by. Join me again to shine a spotlight on creativity!

Hello, my crafty friends! We kicked off October in a BIG way – my daughter got married on Oct 2!!! To add to the celebration, my new son-in-law’s birthday was Oct 1! (He better never forget their anniversary!) I used this week’s Paper Craft Crew sketch challenge for his birthday card.

He really likes sail boats, so I pulled out my Sailing Home set and my Stampin’ Blends.

I used my Night of Navy, Midnight Muse, Balmy Blue and Seaside Spray Stampin’ Blends to color the ombre panel. I stamped the white panel with the retired World Map background stamp.

You can check out more inspiration on the Paper Craft Crew blog and join in the fun! Put your creativity to work and share your project with us.

Hello friends! Welcome to the end of September. It has been a crazy busy month as we have counted down the days to our daughter’s wedding. We are now 2 days away!!!

I did find time to play along with this week’s Paper Craft Crew sketch challenge.

Here is my creation:

The card base has a wood grain dsp panel on it. It kind of blurs out in the photo. I used Free As A Bird stamp set and Peony Garden, Forever Greenery and Wood Grain (retired) DSP.

I’ll see you next week after I recover from the weekend’s wedding frenzy!

Hey there! Ready for another fun Paper Craft Crew challenge? We have another great card sketch ready and waiting!

The strip on the left edge seemed perfect for some designer series paper. So, I dug into my Plaid Tiding DSP stack. Once I saw this particular sheet, the card came together in my head. Inspired by fall and Pumpkin Spice Lattes (even thought I prefer a Mocha).

The Press On stamp set was perfect for what I had in mind. I wanted a feel of cozy flannel, so I embossed the plaid DSP strip with the Tasteful Textile 3D emboss folder. I stamped some coffee beans on the Early Espresso layer behind the coffee cup. Here’s a closer look:

I colored the coffee cup with my Stampin’ Blends. I used dark and light Mango Melody and light Daffodil Delight on the cup and dark Pumpkin Pie on the lid.

Come on over to the Paper Craft Crew blog and play along! We would love to see your take on this card sketch.
