Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 #298

 Hello and thank you for visiting

Today I am sharing my first DT card this month for Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2.

Each month we share 2 new sketches and a retro sketch and this is my card using sketch 298

I used some papers and embellishments from a Fresh Florals that was in a magazine gift a few years ago. I really like the pretty flowers and papers in this set.

My blue card is Plain Turquoise from Dragons Papercraft which is a bricks and mortar and online shop in Rugby with great service and delivery.

Here is the sketch

 

Critter Crazy DT Card #96

 Hello and thank you for visiting

I am here with my second DT card today this is for Challenge #96 at Critter Crazy Challenge

I made this card for my niece to give to her mum for Mothering Sunday which will be on the 30th of March here in the UK

I've used some decoupage and papers from a Me To You Bears papercrafting kit which I bought from The Range, it's not the best image,  I think it must have been a bit dull that day but hopefully we are moving towards the brighter and longer days now.

Do-Al(l) Kreatives DT Card

 Hello and thank you for visiting

I was recently invited to join the team at Do-Al(l) Kreatives and this is my first DT card for them.

This months challenge is to make a Waterfall Card I had been thinking about making one of these for a while and it did help to kickstart my mojo which had been a little stagnant since Christmas.

To make my card I used some green Crelando cardstock from Lidl and pink card from Craft Sensations.

I embossed some whire card with the Cuttlebug Happy Birthday embossing folder

The stamps are Julie Hickey Designs Floral Frames and are coloured with alcohol markers and I embellished with some glossies also from Julie 

The ribbon and brads are from my stash.

Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 DT Sketch 297

 Hello and thank you for visiting

Here is my second DT card for Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 this month

This is using sketch 297

I delved into my Hobby House kits and picked out this precoloured image from the Daisy Mae Draws Meadow Friends sheet and the paper is the Daisy Chain Floral, the sentiment is from the Circle Sentiments set from Julie Hickey Designs, ribbon and pearls are from stash.

The card blank came from Craftwork Cards.

Definitely a shop from stash kind of card.

Nice and simple for a quick card

Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 DT Sketch 296

 Hello everyone, I am here to share my first card for Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 this month, I am mindful that I haven't shared the second one for last month yet but I will share it soon.

This month is my 10 year annivaersary with SSW2, there have been a few changes over those years but I am happy to still be part of the team.

Here is the card I made for sketch 296

I made a 7 x 3 and a 1/4 inch card blank from some turquoisy-green cardstock. The paper is Nitwits Promises from an LOTV pad and the vellum is from Craftwork Cards and is probably about 20 years old.

The flower images are from Julie Hickey Designs Blooming Gorgeous stamp set and I stamped the image 3 times (I also rotated it) and coloured it with Spectrum Noir markers.

The sentiment came from Julie Hickey Designs Daisy Blooms stamps set.

Here is the sketch which I rotated anti-clockwise

If you feel inspired the challenge runs until the 4th of March

I would like to enter my cards in the following challenges

NBUS - Never Before Used Schtuff #71 - The stamps are new

We Love Stamping - I am following the Anything Goes option with this card but I have a CAS card to share soon
