Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #137


Hello!
Happy Wednesday!  I hope you're having a great week!  We had a fabulous weekend and enjoyed celebrating Caleb's birthday with my mom and dad - complete with an ice cream cake with an F-18 Hornet on top!  Caleb actually turns 8 today!  I can't believe that my sweet baby boy is 8 already!  Where does the time go?

We have a great new sketch today at Freshly Made Sketches!  Jen Mitchell is our snazzy hostess this week.  Her cards are absolutely amazing and if you haven't seen them before, you need to head on over there and check them out!  

I did try and create my card landscape style...I really did.  I just got so frustrated.  I couldn't get the card to work so I rotated the sketch.  I'm not usually such a rebel!

I cracked open some of my sneak peek goodies to make this card!  I am not too sure how I feel about the new In Colours yet but they are growing on me!  I do love the new DSP pack and how the Hello Honey and Blackberry Bliss look together!

Supplies:
Cardstock: Basic Grey, Blackberry Bliss, Whisper White
DSP: Moonlight DSP Stack
Stamps: Itty Bitty Banners
Ink: Blackberry Bliss
Other: Beautiful Wings Embosslit, Bitty Banners Framelits, Basic Rhinestones, Honeycomb Textured Embossing Folder, Dimensionals

Thanks for stopping by!
Please hop on over to the Freshly Made Sketches blog and check out the beautiful cards the Clean Team has created for you!  You won't be disappointed!

Have a fabulous day!

Jen

  3. Beautifully done, Jen! I'm loving this color combo. I am afraid of purples, but I think I could maybe handle Blackberry Bliss with the yellow and gray. Thanks for the inspiration!
