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.   

Save

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.

• Last card in the Joseph’s Coat series with a video & free project sheet for each!

  August 13, 2025

  ---

  Here’s the last card made with the Joseph’s Coat technique this week.  You can see the video tutorial below.  

  Save

  It features the Textured Notes stamp set seen here.  I love this set! But I love the dies in the bundle even more.  See the bundle here. 

  I used two of our newest In Colors here – Secret Sea and Timid Tiger.  I love the fact that the Secret Sea matches the Cloud Cover card stock I used for the card base; when sponged lightly. 

  Both of these colors are part of the big In Color sale during August, 2025!  It includes card stock, inks, markers, designer papers, embellishments, kits and lots more!  Check out the many discounted products here. 

  If you’re wondering how to make this incredible colorful effect please watch the video below.  I also gave the step by step directions in this post.

• Gorgeous Joseph’s Coat technique with free project sheet & video

  August 12, 2025

  Here’s another beautiful card made with the Joseph’s Coat technique. I shared it on last week’s Live video.  It’s so fun!

  Save

  My colors include Secret Sea, Timid Tiger and Darling Duckling.  The stamp set is called Artistic Leaves and can be seen here. 

  Save

  This technique involved adding color to White card stock and then heat embossing images in Clear powder over the colors.  Next rub a dark ink pad (Memento Black here).  The embossed images resist the black ink – it must be water-based ink!  

  Watch the video below to see how it’s done.  It’s super fun and such a cool effect.  

  I stamped the inside leaf with color by inking it in Timid Tiger ink and adding Secret Sea to the outer edges.  Then I stamped the coordinating stamp in Darling Duckling.
