Freshly Made Sketches #715

 

Today's a special day with a special post!  I can finally announce that I am officially

a design team member for Freshly Made Sketches!  I love working with sketches 

and could not refuse the invitation from Jennifer Timko to work with the

ladies I've long admired for their weekly creativity. 

I'm also back together with my former CASE this Sketch buddy, Michele Ferguson

and another former teammate, Jen Mitchell! Oh happy day!

Now that I've gushed long enough, here's this week's sketch by Karren.

 

 

And here's my take on the sketch using another Memory Box cutie.

After assembling  the Snowy Owl I added a bit of Stickles on the hat's band and 

pompom. I ran an aqua strip through a snowflake embossing folder and a Kristina 

Werner snowflake was cut from specialty paper from my stash. 

 

I adhered all the pieces per the sketch and added a white embossed sentiment. 

I rounded off the two bottom corners and my first DT card was done.

 

 Visit the Freshly Made Sketches blog for more inspiration and join us if you can.

You have until Monday, December 8th at 3:00PM EST to link up your card(s).

 

Thanks, always, for stopping by!

 

 

Freshly Made Sketches #708

 

Jen T designed Freshly Made Sketches #708, a sketch with many possibilities

for that circular element.

 

Here's how I was inspired. 

 

A Memory Box magnolia wreath almost got turned into poinsettias but I changed the colors

at the last minute for autumn. The wreath was adhered to an embossed card base

and some gemstones were added to the flower centers. A Kristina Werner sentiment

finished off the card.

Thanks so much for stopping by, I'm off to link this up!
