Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #569

Hello! Happy Wednesday!
I hope your week has started well!  We had two foggy days (like all day, crazy fog) that then froze to the trees creating fog frost.  It's the most amazing thing.  The trees look like magical, snow covered beauties but without the actual snow!  Once the sun hits them it melts but it's still so cool!  Trevor and I were able to get out for another hike on the weekend.  It was fabulous.  Part of it was pretty vertical and almost made me want to cry but it was so nice to get out.  The view wasn't as good as normal because of the clouds but it will still beautiful!  Mountains are always more beautiful with snow! 

We've got a brand new sketch this week at Freshly Made Sketches!  Our hostess this week is the amazing Jacquie Southas!  Jacquie creates the most beautiful cards!  Head over to her blog to check out her gorgeous cards!  

Jacquie's sketch is perfect to generate all kinds of different cards!  I still want to make a few Valentine's Day cards so this sketch worked perfectly for that!  I grabbed Many Hearts Dies (SU), the Always Dies (SU) and my Knit Picky Winter paper pack (Lawn Fawn) and went to town!  The best part is that I can make this card in different colours so they're not all the same and some more perfect for the boys in my life!

Supplies:
Cardstock: Flirty Flamingo, Blushing Bride, Champagne Foil, Basic White

Patterned Paper: Knit Picky Winter (Lawn Fawn)

Stamps: Forever and Always (SU)

Ink: Flirty Flamingo

Other: Always Dies (SU), Many Hearts Dies (SU)

Thanks so much for stopping by today!  I hope you'll join in our challenge this week!  Head over to the Freshly Made Sketches blog to check out the cards the Design Team has created to inspire you!  We can't wait to see what you come up with!

Have an amazing day!

Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #568

Hello!
Happy Wednesday!  I hope you're having a great start to the week!  We're back in routine here - kids are back at school and my husband is back at work.  It was such a nice holiday and I loved having a break from the rush and craziness but getting back to routine is always really nice!  At least for me!  

We've got a brand new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches this week!  Our hostess this week is the super creative Judy Rozema!  Judy's cards are beautiful and always full of personality!  I love them!  Head over to her blog to check them out! 

I need to make some Valentine's Day cards so I decided I would use this sketch as a starting point!  I had purchased that sweet Lawn Fawn paper last week and couldn't wait to use it!  It's so fun and perfect for winter or for Valentine's Day!  I had grabbed this hot foil plate as well and it's the perfect sentiment for this card!  Of course I needed some sweet little hearts so I added these hearts from the SU Many Hearts Dies!

Supplies:

Cardstock: Basic White, Flirty Flamingo, Hammermill Cover Stock

DSP: Knit Picky Winter 6X6 Petite Paper Pack (Lawn Fawn)

Stamps: Lots of Heart (SU)

Ink: Flirty Flamingo

Other: Love You the Most (Pink Fresh Studio), Rose Gold Hot Foil (Spellbinders), Many Hearts Dies (SU), Subtle Texture Embossing Folder (SU)

Thanks so much for stopping by today!  I do hope you'll pop over to the Freshly Made Sketches blog and join in our challenge this week!  There are some beautiful cards posted that will help get those creative juices flowing!  We always love to see what you create!

I hope you have an amazing day!
