Unscripted Sketches #259

Unscripted Sketches has been a wonderful part of my life, but today will be the last sketch. It's time to shut down.  I'm sad to see this part of my creative life go, but I'm so grateful for the time I spent on the Design Team. It was a wonderful run and I've grown a lot as a designer because of it. Thanks for the great inspiration and the hard work that everyone put in to it to make Unscripted Sketches such a  fabulous place.

Please check out the cards from our DT and you may also play along one last time.

 

Here's my last card for Unscripted Sketches 

Carte Postale

Happy Friday everyone.  I'm here to share my latest card for the 7kids Store blog. I don't know about you but I love to use seasonal papers for more than the particular season they were made for.  Graphic 45 paper collections go together so well, you probably wouldn't notice that the yellow paper came from the 12 Days of Christmas 8x8 Paper pad if I hadn't just told you.  Am I right?  The next time you are stumped for an idea, try looking through your stash of seasonal paper to see if something sparks your creativity.

I hope you all have a great weekend and Happy Card Making :)

La-La Land Fan

Happy Friday everyone. The card I'm sharing today was made with the stamp set called Kimono Marci with a fan from La-La Land.  I only used the fan and the arrigato stamp to create a back ground.  I also stamped it on a piece of canvas and a patterned piece of paper to use as a focal point.

If you're like me, you sometimes forget that you can use your stamps for making your own background paper which is great to add texture to your design and It makes it easier to match other elements in your card because you are customizing it to your needs. If you haven't tried it in a while I hope you will give it a shot.

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great weekend and Happy Card Making.
