Freshly Made Sketches 247!

Hello, hello!  It's Wednesday so that means it's time for a new challenge at Freshly Made Sketches!  This week our guest designer Shannon is our sketch hostess.  I actually owe a deep apology to Shannon because I thought I would be clever and rotate the sketch to accommodate a certain sentiment die that I wanted to use and somehow became spatially disoriented because said sentiment ended up in the wrong place.  Even so, I think you get the spirit of the sketch from my card.  At least I hope so!

I love these how these colors look together and they come from the latest challenge at Cupcake Inspirations.  I wasn't actually sure I could pull off the white die cut sentiment but I think it looks pretty good.  In real life it's a little sparkly because I went over it with Wink of Stella, but you can't see it here because my photography talents don't extend to whatever skill is needed to make that show up!

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you've got some time to join us at Freshly Made Sketches.  Our design team has got some wonderful cards to inspire you so I hope we'll see you in the gallery!

Supplies
Paper:  White (Spectrum Noir); Night of Navy, Rich Razzleberry, Pumpkin Pie (SU)
Accessories:  Circle STAX 2 (My Favorite Things); Thank You die (Heidi Swapp); Wink of Stella

Freshly Made Sketches 232!

This week at Freshly Made Sketches, our sketch is brought to you by Narelle.  Now, don't adjust your sets folks your eyes are not deceiving you.  Our resident Queen of Layers has designed a sketch that only has a couple of them!  Maybe there's a CAS designer inside of her sometimes that's just busting to get out!

I'm also following along in a couple of other challenges here.  At Addicted to CAS they are looking for inlaid die(s) so I've got three.  I think it's hard to see in the photo but one of the inlaid dies is a white pierced rectangle.  In hindsight I don't think the white-on-white was such a good idea because it's so hard to photograph but in real life it looks a lot better!  The other challenge is Paper Smooches Sparks which is a black, white and one other color challenge.  Whenever I see those I like my other color to be something bright so I chose Melon Mambo.

Now make sure you check out the other cards from the design team at Freshly Made Sketches.  They will knock your socks off.  And you can be somewhat sure that Narelle managed to sneak in a few extra layers on her card!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope I get to see you in the gallery this week!
