Hello!
I hope you all are having a great start to your week! Is it possible that it's Wednesday already?! Seriously, where does the time go! I spent my morning yesterday being "pampered" and then photographed by the lovely and very talented Heidi Ram. She is a fabulous (and VERY patient) local photographer who is starting a new endeavour with mom's! I got to be a guinea pig for her today! You can check out her blog here!
Okay that aside, today is Wednesday! That means there is a new sketch on Freshly Made Sketches from another talented lady - Jen Mitchell! Did you know there are 4 Jen's on our FMS design team?!
Jen's sketch challenged me for a while. Not really sure why. Then I remembered I needed to make an 80th birthday card for the father in law of a dear friend of mine. I love the new Clockworks stamp set. It's masculine and works great for men of all ages! Maybe I'll start using that instead of "The Open Sea"!
Supplies:
Cardstock: Early Espresso, Very Vanilla, Midnight Muse
DSP: Comfort Cafe
Stamps: Clockworks, Itty Bitty Banners
Ink: Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Midnight Muse
Other: Bitty Banners Framelits Die, Timeless Type Sizzlets, Argyle Textured Embossing Folder
Thanks for Stopping by!
Have a great day!
Jen
Great masculine card Jen! The argyle embossed background and stamp look really great. I bet your friend loves it!
