Fetch A Sketch Challenge 62

Time for another Fetch A Sketch challenge! And a nice easy sketch for the fortnight

The challenge is sponsored by the fab Scribbles Designs - if you've not heard of them, pop over to the store as there are some amazing digi's!

I've used Spring Rain Flowers digi for my card, printed it out a few times, coloured with Promarkers and layered it up for a more 3d effect.

I've also added half pearls to the image and also on the kraft card blank, plus a little doodling of my own! Hope you can join in with the challenge! For more details, pop over to Fetch A Sketch.

Fetch A Sketch Challenge 61

There is a new challenge at Fetch A Sketch and here is the sketch for the fortnight:

And here is my sample:

I've used a cute Jellypark topper from CraftsUPrint and I've printed it onto a sort of watercolour card for a different effect. The papers are Sugar and Spice from Dovecraft and I've added a fancy X Cut die cut behind the image. Embroidery thread and flowers are from my stash along with the tiny half pearls. A bit of stickles have been added to the bunting. And that's it!

Dr Digi is the fab sponsor and here is my take on the sketch.  I've used the Cuppa digi stamp (its currently a freebie on the website!) and coloured it with Promarkers.  Papers are from the A to Z mega collection  by Samantha Walker (I bought it on a One Buck Wednesday deal at Jessica Sprague some time ago and its got a lot for the buck!!)

A little bit of doodling here and there and the card is complete - simple but quirky!  Good luck with the Fetch A Sketch challenge, for more details, pop over to the challenge blog!

We are sponsored by the very fab Scribbles Designs and two of the Design Team have joined in - pop over to Fetch A Sketch to see their wonderful creations!

Here is my sample:

I've used Flower 4 which has been printed directly onto the white linen cardstock and then coloured with Promarkers. I've used an old Studio G acrylic stamp for the sentiment and drew round a Nesties die for the shaped bottom! A bit of inking around the edges and the card is complete!

Fetch A Sketch Challenge 58

It's time for a new Fetch A Sketch challenge and here is the sketch:

The challenge is sponsored by Funky Hand and of course I've used Funky Hand papers in my creation! I've not kept to the circle shape but went for a star shape instead as I was asked to make a male 21st Birthday card and thought a star shape would be more apt.

I've used papers from one of the new Christmas download collections that is due to be released very soon and this particular download is very versitle and can be used for non Christmas too! Which is great for the crafter as more uses!

I've used a simple star shaped template for my card and then added smaller stars to the front in contrasting papers, inking the edges and adding a faux stitched line with a black fineliner around the edges. The smaller stars are cut with an X Cut die and the numbers are Sizzix and have been liberally coated with glitter glue! I've attached the numbers to the star with craft wire so that they boing around!

Good luck with the challenge! For more details, pop over to Fetch A Sketch!

Papers are from DCWV - 6x6 The Christmas Stack which have been cut with a Spellbinder die and then layered onto some green card.

The hearts I've cut from the paper and then layered them.  And I've folded the paper across the centre and used staples to hold it in place hence the line of pearls!  A bit of faux stitching here and there and some inking and the card is complete!

And we are sponsored by the very cute Jellypark!  The winner of the sketch will get to choose from the store two digi's of their choice.

And here is what I came up with.  I've used the cute Typewriter digi image which I've coloured with Promarkers.  I've used a kraft card blank which I've shaped the corners and added a faux stitch around the edges.

The newspaper print is actually a vintage car magazine from December 1935!  I've glued it to a panel and then scrunched it a little before the glue dried.  The image sits inside the card on the aperture I cut with a Nestie die and again I covered this with the magazine.

And three half pearls finish off the card!  Good luck with the challenge and for more details, pop over to Fetch A Sketch!

I've added some doodling here and there and also inking and the embroidery thread is from my stash.  So a nice and simple sketch this fortnight but with plenty of room to add your own touch!  To find out more about the challenge, please visit Fetch A Sketch!

I've used the Pipe digi (only 50p), coloured it with Promarkers and used a fancy X Cut die to cut it out.  The sentiment I thought up myself and printed it on the pc.  Distressing is courtesy of a used tea bag and a bit of inking.  And I found the chocolate brown card in my stash along with the corrugated backing.

I've worked with one of the Bits N Bobs images - the Paint Can is only 50p from the store!  I've kept it quite basic as I didn't want to over complicate the image - the sentiment I printed on my pc and I've coloured the image with Promarkers plus a little glossy accents.

I've used my fancy X Cut dies for the shapes and added a faux stitched line.  And that's it!  The challenge runs for 2 weeks - for more details pop over to Fetch A Sketch!

Fetch A Sketch Challenge 47

It's time for another Fetch A Sketch challenge! Here is the sketch for the fortnight:

The sponsor for the challenge is Funky Hand and Anice has kindly offered the winner a download of their choice!

And here is my take on the sketch.  I've used papers from Funky Daze which must be one of my most favourite and used Funky Hand cd's!  I've used my X Cut star die and made a slider card - the 'gap' thing is at a slight angle so that it rolls.

I've added kraft card and punched a few hearts too.  The sentiment is handwritten.  A bit of faux stitching and some dotting around the edges and the card is complete!

Fetch A Sketch Challenge 45

It's time for another Fetch A Sketch challenge and here is the sketch for the fortnight:

I've kept to the actual shape of the sketch and used some base papers from my stash plus a digi that I found in my stash - I must have had it a while because I'd already coloured it!  I can't remember off the top of my head the designer so when I remember I'll update the details below.  I've remembered!!  It's from Pink Cat Studios and its called Rex Loves Cake!

It's been coloured with Promarkers and then added with foam pads so it stands out a little.

The sentiment has been cut with my Cuttlebug Baby Face alphabet dies as I needed something to fill the space!

Some card candi and a stray piece of black elastic along with faux stitching and my card is complete!
