Freshly Made Sketches 441

Summer is in full swing here.  The sun is shining, the weather is hot, and the vegetable garden is growing.  So, of course, this put me in mind of snowflakes for my Freshly Made Sketches card this week!  LOL!  Our hostess is Judy and that big ol' circle is what made me think of the snowflakes.



I went with a white on white card even though I have such trouble photographing those!  But the snowflakes look so pretty layered in white.  I used some sparkly paper and some sparkly vellum to cut them and layered them against a falling snow background.  Even I love a good snowflake - as long as it is a feature on a card.  And they are especially easy to take when it's 90-degrees outside!  At Christmas Card Throwdown they are looking for snowflakes so I'm playing along there as well.


Thanks for stopping by!  Our Freshly Made Sketches design team has got some great cards to inspire you to play along with us!

  9. You are so good at making Christmas cards during the year and this is one gorgeous white-on-white card. And I know how hard these are to photograph so kudos on a great photo! BTW, your FMS label hasn't been on the last few FMS cards so they're not coming up when we click the link from the challenge blog.
