Freshly Made Sketches 568

Happy Wednesday friends!  It's time to reveal our new sketch challenge at Freshly Made Sketches!  This week our hostess and sketch designer is Judy.  She has given us a sketch that seems so simple at first, but as you will see by the design team cards can be interpreted in so many fabulous, crafty ways!

I went old-school designer paper heavy on my card.  I wanted some patterns and contrast for my design and this designer series paper seemed to fit the bill.  I added the trio of flowers in pink to take the place of the squares on the sketch.  Totally ok!  

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope you can join us at Freshly Made Sketches for our challenge this week!

Supplies
Paper:  Tempting Turquoise, Regal Rose, Pretty in Pink, Loves Me Not DSP (Stampin' Up!)
Accessories:  Daisy die (La La Land Crafts)

Fusion - Cloth Bunnies

We've got a fun new challenge for you at Fusion!  I was inspired to use the colors in the photo along with the sketch to create a birthday card.

I love these little bunnies with their rustic colors and fabrics.  But alas I didn't have any suitable bunnies in my stash so I borrowed the colors from the photo and incorporated them into the sketch to make a birthday card!

I used a dotted border circle die for my half-circle layer because I thought it was much more interesting than a plain-old-boring-regular-circle.  Then I took a little dive into my stash and found something called "naturals ivory" from SU.  I used it to die cut the flowers.  It's a little more earthy version of ivory and went perfectly with the kraft colors.

Thanks for stopping by!  Our Fusion design team has got some fabulous cards to inspire you to play along with us!

Fusion - Turquoise Rose Bouquet

Sorry I'm late with my Fusion card post.  Apparently I forgot to hit Publish 😕  

The challenge inspiration has these beautiful roses in a lovely turquoise color with little bits of gold thrown in for good measure.  Using that as my first clue, I opted to use a die-cut flower (definitely not a rose) in the shades of blue as I saw them along with a bit of gold.  I incorporated that into the sketch and used some lovely corrugated kraft paper for the panel on the left side of the sketch.  I stuck some clear droplets in the center of the flowers then sprinkled a few sequins around to take up some of the blank space and add a little interest.  The script sentiment sits perfectly in the right bottom corner.

Thanks for stopping by!  Don't forget at Fusion you can use the sketch, use the inspiration photo, or create a little fusion of your own by combining the two!
