Freshly Made Sketches 36

Wednesday is the day when I get to show off the sketch from my favorite sketch challenge Freshly Made Sketches!  This week Tui has given us a great sketch that I'm pretty sure you will file away to use again and again.



I grabbed some of my retired Walk in the Park DSP for the small squares.  (I love to squeeze in a bit of Kiwi Kiss when I can)!  The big layer is stamped with the lovely grass from Inspired by Nature and the sentiment from Happy Everything is stamped over it.  Then I punched a couple of flowers from the retired Trio Flower punch, added a couple of basic pearls and Voila! A card that was pretty easy to put together, but looks good too!

Now head on over to Freshly Made Sketches and check out the design team inspiration.  Then link up your creation!

Here are some quick links to our amazing DT!

Ahh, Kiwi Kiss... my most favorite grellow ever. I love this card, Jen - it's gorgeous! You are seriously making me reconsider my decision not to purchase Inspired by Nature now. I opted for Upsy Daisy instead. At least there are a few more days left until the end of the month so I can still debate within myself what to do... LOL

Beautiful Jen!! I love this simple layout and calming colors. And I love that you used a retired set too. Many only focus on the current catalog and most of us don't rid ourselves of our stash. I know this card with make the recipent very happy!
