What a Fun Sketch! Check out #CC 57 made with the pretty Favored Flowers DSP


We have 2-3 sketch or color challenges each month on our Flowerbug's Team.  I decided to use the Favored Flowers Sale-a-Bration designer paper for my version.   

I also used the Cane Weave 3D embossing folder and Happy Labels stamp set. Both are new in the Jan-June Spring catalog.  

I love this sketch because it's simple and unique.  A few rectangles and a strip of card stock are your starting point. Then add other elements as needed.  My diagonal strip is going the opposite way but that's okay; sketches are a starting point that you can change as needed. 


My measurements are: 

  • Petal Pink card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • DSP 2 3/4" X 4"
  • Calypso Coral  2 1/2" X 4"
  • Evergreen 1" X 5"

I did fussy cut a flower from the pretty Favored Flowers DSP. See it here. 

This designer paper is free with any $50 purchase during our SAB (Sale-a-Bration) promotion through February 28th.  But remember that it's while supplies last!  

Sketches are a wonderful starting point to creating a card.  I highly recommend them.  You can find many on Pinterest; just search card sketches.

  • Gorgeous Butterflies with the Brilliant Wing dies


    I was playing around with these dies and came up with these striking colored butterflies.   

    I used the designer paper as a template to sponge through.  This is what's left after you use the Brilliant Wings dies to cut out the 6 butterflies.  Although in hindsight I should have sponged on the other side so the die fit.  It was upside down on the die; I had to hold it up to the light to get the die placed correctly.  

    I added a piece of White CS behind these butterflies and used the Stitched with Whimsy dies to add that pretty stitched edge.  See those here. 

    Click on the image below to see these items in my store. Remember this designer paper is available through May 3rd or while supplies last.


    The greeting is from the Vine Design stamp set on a 1/2" strip of Poppy Parade card stock.

  • This week’s card sketch for a quick, cute card!


    Are you a collector of pretty papers?  I've heard that many of you are!  I equate it to my fabric collecting days.  

    This card sketch idea (seen below) will help you use some of it; it's so simple!   

    I used the Double Oval punch for the greeting which unfortunately is unavailable right now; they've run out!  But it will be at the end of March.  The stamped greeting is from the Enjoy the Moment stamp set on page 59 in the Spring catalog. This pretty Grape ribbon is also unavailable; it should be back  next week. 

    I chose to use the new Butterfly Bijou designer paper; an exclusive paper not seen in any catalog.  It's available here through May 3rd or while supplies last.  It's a 48 pack of 6 X 6" papers.  I love the soft spring-like colors. 

    Measurements are:

    • Card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • Gorgeous Grape 5 1/4" X 3 1/2"
    • Designer Paper 3 pieces at 1 1/2" X 3 7/8"

    You could use this sketch with stamped or textured card stock instead of designer paper.  I would cut a full 4 1/2" X 3 7/8" piece of card stock, stamp it and then cut it into 1 1/2" strips.
