Sketch Saturday Challenge #367

Happy Saturday!

We have a new sketch challenge at Sketch Saturday #367.  Our sponsor is the fabulous Deedee's Digis.  The prize this week is a $15 gift certificate from Deedee's Digis.

Sketch #367 designed by Alex...

My Interpretation:

This week I used 'Classics' by Deedee.  This is a pre-colored image, so a super simple and quick card.  The sentiment is from Fun Stampers Journey Keep Pedaling.

Sketch Saturday Challenge #328

Happy Saturday!

We have a new sketch challenge at Sketch Saturday #328.  Our sponsor is the fabulous Deedee's Digis.  The prize this week is 3 digi sets from Deedee's Digis. 

Since Deedee last sponsored Sketch Saturday she has moved to her very own store front!   Her sets include several images (outline and pre-colored), most have sentiments and some have coordinating digital papers to go with the pre-colored images. 

This week's sketch was designed by Cathy...

My Interpretation:

I'm thinking Fall already with this card.  This is called Autumn Blessings.  I colored the wreath with Copic markers.  The papers are PaperTrey Ink - Fall Prints and Patterns, Vintage Cream, Terracotta Tile and Ripe Avocado cardstock. Copic Colors: R24, R29, YR12, YR16, YR18, Y32, Y35, Y38, YG91, YG93, YG95, YG97.

Sketch Saturday Challenge #302

Happy Saturday!

We have a new challenge starting today at Sketch Saturday!  Deedee Designs is sponsoring Challenge #302. The prize is 3 sets.  Deedee offers sets with colored and line images, sentiments and some sets include coordinating digital papers.

Sketch #302 was designed by Cathy

 Here is my interpretation:

 

The image, sentiment and patterned paper are from Whole Latte Love by Deedee.  I used the pre-colored image, which could not have made the creation of this card easier.  I think it is a great any occasion card.

The base card is PTI Kraft and matting PTI True Black.  I added a strip of crimped kraft cardstock, another coffee accent.

You can see all the DT creations using this week's sketch HERE.  Hope you will join us this week.

Christmas Cards 2013

Hello All,

Today, I have this year's Christmas cards to show, well the prototype cards.  So happy to have them finished, addressed and ready to mail.  They were actually mailed over the weekend.

I made 3 cards this year.  They are all similar layout, but different images and colors so I was able to use cardstock I had on hand.  The images are pre-colored, since I was making so many - 82 total.

The first used an image and verse from Doodle Pantry - Blessed Christmas.  The cardstock is PTI Blueberry Sky and Enchanted Evening.  The embossed panel is the image is impression plate called scallops and circles from Taylored Expressions.  I could not find it in their store anymore.  I actually used a different embossing folder for the cards I sent - Goosebumpz "Chain", which looked like burlap fabric to me.  I made 34 of this version.

Card 2 used an image from Deedee Designs - Christmas Cardinal.  The cardstock is PTI Pure Poppy.  The embossing folder shown is Cuttlebug twigs.  The actual folder I used for the cards I sent was Cuttlebug Distressed Stripes.  The embossed panel looked more like the side of a barn.  I made 24 of this type.

Card 3 used an image from Clear Dollar Stamps called Paper Christmas Trees.  CDS went out of business a couple months ago.  The embossing folder is Cuttlebug Mistletoe. Love this folder.  Cardstock is PTI Ripe Avocado.  I made 24 of this one too.

Thanks for stopping by...

Hope you all have a wonderfully blessed Christmas!
