Sketch Challenge 252

I'm a little late again on getting Wednesday's Sketch Challenge card up! I sure hope I don't get fired. I needed to make another Christmas card (I don't quite have enough yet!) and my next door neighbour just had a baby girl so I needed a baby card for them (en Francais).

Mojo Monday 110

Okay so it's Tuesday but I got the Mojo Monday cards done and uploaded! I'm doing okay I think!!!

The sketch proved challenging for me this week as I was feeling rather uncreative this afternoon. My three year old has decided that some days nap time is optional and I thought today might just be one of those days but thankfully he slept!

Two cards were created and posted below!

Thursday Cards!

I am pretty impressed that I got some cards made today despite feeling kinda blah and uncreative. I was going through a recent PaperCrafts magazine and found some great designs that I had to case. Most of today's supplies are non-Stampin' Up! so I won't even list them...all inks are Stampin' Up! though.






Hope you enjoy the cards!
Happy Thursday!

Card Sketch Challenge

Okay so I'm totally impressed with myself for getting the Wednesday Card Sketch Challenge done on Wednesday! I feel like I'm catching a cold so I decided to work on the card at nap time while watching last night's NCIS and NCIS LA online!!!




So here is today's sketch...you can do whatever design you want and even change the sketch up a little...this is just to get you started.


This is my card...it looks really dark in the picture. We don't have a lot of sunlight today and my flash makes the card look really white. I really like the "Season of Simple Grace" stamp set by Stampin' Up!. It makes some wonderful Christmas cards.


Supplies:
Paper: Real Red, Very Vanilla, Merry Moments DSP
Stamps: Season of Simple Grace, All Holidays
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Real Red, Garden Green
Accessories: Chocolate Chip Taffeta Ribbon, Snowflake button

Mojo Monday 109

I'm pretty impressed that it's Tuesday and I'm posting my Mojo Monday card! I have been feeling rather uncreative lately and had a hard time coming up with a card to go with this week's sketch.

I've added in this week's sketch so you can see where I start from and can try to come up with some cards of your own.

I haven't made baby cards recently and needed to have a few on hand so this is what I've come up with. The waves are created using the punched out piece from the Scallop Border Bunch. I inked them with Blue Bayou Ink (Retired) to make them stand out a bit more. You can also cut waves freehand or use scallop-edged scissors.



Supplies:
Paper: Chocolate Chip, Blue Bayou, Whisper White, Patterned Paper
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Blue Bayou, So Saffron
Stamps: Nursery Necessities
Accessories: Chocolate Chip Taffeta Ribbon, Large Oval Punch, Scallop Oval Punch, Scallop Border Punch, Brown Brads
