Sketch Frenzy Friday 122013

Happy Friday all! Hope it's been a good week! Better here than last is as positive as I can be! Think we are just about ready for Christmas and that is very good!

Friday means another Sketch Frenzy Friday challenge and I actually found time to play! Here is my creation

based on this sketch by Deb Currier.

I've been missing making Christmas cards this year (but NOT the stress of actually getting them in the mail!) so I decided to go Holiday. I knew the Winter Frost DSP would have a good print for the center panel and I landed on this one with the snowflakes. Then I grabbed the smallest snowflake from the Festive Flurry set. The card base is Smoky Slate to coordinate with the DSP. the layer behind the print is Island Indigo. I stamped the snowflake with the Illuminate Glimmer Pad. I stamped the Peace on Earth from the Calm Christmas set in Island Indigo on Whisper White and cut into a banner shape. I stamped the snowflake again in Island Indigo on Whisper White and cut with the coordinating Framelit. It is attached with a Dimensional. Rhinestones were added to the snowflake and under the right side of the banner.

Thanks for stopping by today! Make sure you stop over at the main Sketch Frenzy Friday blog to see what all the team has created, and to play along!!

 Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

Happy Friday all! Hope you've had a great week! Busy here, but good!!

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

based on this sketch by Kim Innis.

I decided to dig through the Christmas/Holiday stamps and Designer Paper and use something from there. Need to play with these lots to see if I can figure out a very easy Christmas card, otherwise this may be the first year ever we don't send one!! Anyway, I landed on the Festive Flurry set and Winter Frost stack. I looked at the DSP, but decided the Stack gave me enough options! Card base is Smoky Slate, Whisper White accent layer behind Coastal Cabana background. On that, I stamped the smallest snowflake from the Festive Flurry set using the Illuminate pad. An accent of Bermuda Bay sits behind the Island Indigo that backs the snowflake. I inked the snowflake with Coastal Cabana, then thumped it with Bermuda Bay and Island Indigo. Neither is very prominent!! Either I had a very light hand, or the colors are more similar than they look! DSP accents are below the snowflake, a Whisper White ribbon accents the top, and Rhinestones make the flake sparkle!!
