Sketch Frenzy Friday 053113

Happy Friday all! Hope you've had a GREAT week! Full of weather here! Storms all week, plenty of rain, and luckily no severe stuff!!

As you know, Friday means another round of Sketch Frenzy Friday! Here is my creation


based on this sketch by Patrice Herrera.


My color combination: Rich Razzleberry, Bermuda Bay and Daffodil Delight. I found a DSP print that I liked in the new DSP pack, Quartrefancy Specialty, in Daffodil Delight. I knew that would go with Rich Razzleberry, then looked to find a 3rd color for contrast. The returning Bermuda Bay!! I stamped the butterflies from Papillion Potpouri on Whisper White and punched with the coordinating punches. The saying is from a new greeting set, Really Good Greetings, and was stamped in Rich Razzleberry directly on the DSP. The butterflies were attached with dimensionals and have added "bling" rhinestones.

Thanks for stopping by today!! Make sure you stop over by the main SFF blog and see what the rest of the team created. Trust me-you won't be disappointed :) See you again soon!!

Happy Friday all, thanks for stopping by!! Thanks for hanging with me over the last few months with my scattered posting!! Hoping soon to get back on a more regular schedule!!

As you know, Friday means another round of Sketch Frenzy Friday!! Great sketch this week by Tammy Fite! Here is my card


based on this sketch by Tammy:


I walked into my room tonight (Thursday, after 8:30 pm!!) with no clue where I was going with this! Love that SU! makes such great stuff that I can easily pull something together that works so well!! 

The Chevron pattern in the sketch caught my eye, so I started looking at DSP. I landed on the Parker's Patterns pack from the Spring Mini and found a Chevron print in Daffodil Delight. My brain immediately went to a sunflower type flower for the element (imagine that!!). I briefly considered building a flower with the Fun Flowers die, but then settled on the Perfect Pennant Die for the element, with a Secret Garden die cut flower. Colors, Chocolate Chip, Daffodil Delight and Whisper White. Simple and Sweet :)

Sketch Frenzy Friday 051013

Happy Friday all! and Happy Graduation to all those Seniors who are gracing the stage tomorrow!! My Oldest Son included!! Stressful for Mom, but a VERY special time!!

Today's Sketch Frenzy Friday sketch is by yours truly! Quick and simple and perfect for a couple more graduation cards!! Here is what I came up with


based on this sketch


I needed two cards for out of town cousins and this worked perfectly. Both invites seem to indicate the school colors are Red & Black, with Silver and White accents. I happened to think of the Red Glimmer paper and knew I was set! Card base is Real Red with a Basic Black background layer. I stamped the saying on Whisper White in Real Red and added a graduation cap in Black. The silver brads were the perfect accent for the sketch, and the cap! Hopefully these will be in the mail tomorrow!!

Thanks for stopping by today! Stop over at the main SFF Blog to see what the rest of the team created, and to play along!!

Howdy all, Happy Friday! Sadly, this another one of those "I don't have a card" posts! So sorry! I always have the best of intentions, but this time of year is just crazy! My boys are almost done with their school year, and one of them is graduating next weekend (YIKES). We've been jammed with end of year activities and graduation party prep! I won't bore you with any more details :)

Here is the Sketch Frenzy Friday sketch of the week, by Deb Currier.
