Sketch Frenzy Friday 060812

Happy Friday all! Long week here, not sure why, but ready for the weekend! Hoping to get into the stamp room and have motivation to clean up and sort!! Not stamping except for SFF is starting to bother me!! I haven't even ordered yet from the new catalog-YIKES!!

Anyway, on to the reason you're here-Sketch Frenzy Friday!! Time for another challenge and mini tour. This week, the sketch is by Tammy Fite. Here is my creation

based on this sketch by Tammy:

I wasn't sure about this at first, but I like what I came up with thanks to the Summer Smooches DSP & Bright Blossoms set. Quick and simple (I didn't have the brain power for anything else!!)

The card base is Rich Razzleberry, with a multi-color background print from the DSP pack. The center piece has a background of Daffodil Delight DSP with an accent layer of Daffodil Delight card stock. The saying and flowers were stamped on Whisper White and accented with Island Indigo. Love all the colors in this DSP!!! The flower stems are Lucky Limeade, the flowers Daffodil Delight, Rich Razzleberry & Island Indigo. The ribbon at the bottom is the new 1/4" Stitched Grosgrain in Daffodil Delight. Took a while to tie that bow-it's been far too long!!

Happy Friday all! Hope you had a good week! Very busy here again, but I guess that's just the new normal!!

As you know, Friday means another challenge at Sketch Frenzy Friday and a mini hop. Here is my card

based on this sketch by Deb Currier.

Are you seeing a pattern with my last few creations??!!?? Haven't had time to clean my room, and the Summer Smooches DSP and Bright Blossoms set are out so I just keep using them! I do like the bright colors of them too for this time of year!!

Card base is Island Indigo with a background accent of Daffodil Delight behind the Summer Smooch print. The accent layers are also Summer Smooch prints layered onto card stock. The saying is from Friendly Phrases and was stamped in Island Indigo on the Daffodil print DSP. The flower is from Bright Blossoms. I inked the stem with Lucky Limeade and the small circles with Daffodil. The Tangerine Tango circle flower is a separate stamp I added at the top. I also colored in the center circle with the Daffodil Delight marker. Final accent is a Summer Smooch Fabric Brad beside the sentiment.

Happy Friday all!! Hope your week was good. Busy here as usual, but I finally got the taxes done! YEAH!! Maybe I'll actually get to work in the stamp room this weekend as they are promising rain :)

As you know, Friday means another Sketch Frenzy Friday challenge and mini tour. Here is my card

based on this sketch by Angela Walters.

I used the sneak peak Summer Smooches products again!! Get yours today!! My card base is Island Indigo with a Rich Razzleberry accent layer behind the Summer Smooches DSP panels. The main image is the vase/flower image from Bright Blossoms. For the large flower I used one of the Summer Smooches Fabric Designer Brads.  Note:  These brads are only available NOW during April. They WILL NOT be in the new catalog in June.

Happy Friday all! And Happy Easter too :) It was a no stamping week here for me-sorry! Life has just been crazy lately!! But, I did manage to create something for the Sketch Frenzy Friday challenge! Here is my card

based on this sketch by Tina Taves

My card base is Basic Gray with a Rich Razzleberry accent layer behind a DSP print background of Rich Razzleberry. The DSP is from the sneak peak Summer Smooches pack. The "scallop" border under the images was done by using the Edgelits Adorning Accents scallop and coordinating Embossing Folder. The flowers and vases are from the sneak peak set Bright Blossoms. I stamped some direct on the card stock, and others on a separate piece and cut them out. Those are attached with dimensionals for effect. I inked quite a few of the stamps using markers. The saying is from Teeny Tiny Wishes.

Happy Friday all! Wow, how did it get to be the last Friday of March already?!? Spring has arrived for sure here in Nebraska-maybe a little too much so! It's been awfully warm for this early!!

Anyway, on to the main attraction!! The Sketch Frenzy Friday challenge and creation of the week! Here is my card

based on this sketch by Tammy Fite!

I played with the Sneak Peak products available during April: the Summer Smooches DSP and Bright Blossoms stamp set! Fun fun!!

The card base is Island Indigo with a Daffodil Delight border behind the DSP background of Daffodil and Indigo. Across the edge of the background I attached 3 ribbons like the sketch. I used two of the new Daffodil Delight Seam Binding (another Sneak Peak item available during April) and one of the Indigo Island Ruffled Ribbon. I had to modify the sketch a tad as I couldn't get three images to fit, but I think the two works just fine! I used markers to ink the stamps, stamped on Whisper White, and layered onto Island Indigo. The saying is from Pursuit of Happiness.
