Hope you all are having a great day! It's been a busy one for me. The past few days have been so busy that I have not had the time to play in my craft room and do some of the challenges that I wanted to this week. That's not right....
Anyway, this is my first time participating in the CAS(E) this Sketch Challenge. It looks like so much fun! I loved the sketch this week and the cards the design team made were very inspiring.
I've been playing around with one of my stamp sets I got for Christmas, Strawberry Patch from Papertrey Ink. I love anything strawberryish. I don't know if it's the colors or what, but strawberries are just so cute. When I get a new set of stamps, I have to familiarize myself with them. I like to look at them, smell them, hold them and then make about six cards with them. Then I feel like I know them personally. Well I now know Strawberry Patch personally. We're big buddies! :D So I decided to use this set for my challenge sketch.
Here is the inspiration:
And here is what I did with it :
As I said above, the stamps are Strawberry Patch from Papertrey Ink. The swirl is Fancy Flourishes also from Papertrey Ink. The paper was from my stash of unknown origin :)
Thanks so much for stopping by! Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
Hugs,
Kay :)
Love the fresh greens and the pops of cheerful red! Thanks so much for playing along with this week's CAS(E) This Sketch!
ReplyDeleteJust scanned your blog--what lovely cards you make!
ReplyDeleteStunning card...Very nicely done!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to work with your new stamps, Kay. And I do believe you when you say you and your strawberry stamps are good buddies as this card is fantastic. The colors really pop and are so crisp and clean. I think I've said it before, but I am really enjoying seeing all the creations you are sharing. Your eye for design is fabulous! Curious minds want to know...how long does it usually take you to create a card? Do you fiddle and futz a lot or do you have a design in mind that you can execute fairly quickly?
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing and inspiring! *Ü*
