Guess whose week it is to be the hostess at Freshly Made Sketches?! Mine! I'm so excited for this sketch and I hope you like it as much as I do. I created the big gray panel as a place to put DSP or you can put something with pattern on the edges like I did. The circle can be any shape...

Fall is in the air and I'm prepping for some upcoming Craft Fairs and Kit classes. I am totally in love with the new Curly Keepsake Box Framelits that are in the Holiday Mini. These boxes are quick and easy to create and if you have followed me you know that I love gift packaging. Here is what I've been creating this morning - In just a few hours I have a whole pumpkin patch! These cute little pumpkins are filled with some chocolate treats for gift giving or would be adorable on a fall table at each persons place! Stop back tomorrow for some more ideas using this amazing framelit! You can click on the shop now button above to order this framelit for yourself Blessings, Missy
Welcome to Freshly Made Sketches! Each week, one member of our design team creates a sketch for you to try, the twist is to keep your pro...
It's easy to see the first photo is a replica of the one on the front of the 2012 Holiday Catalogue. I used some retired silver chord instead of the linen thread and this sample used a different DSP for the rosette. Otherwise, I think it's the same. I did this lovely ornament as a class and to show the versatility of the stamp set and dies, I made several cards to show as samples. The rest of these photos are cards I made using the designs of other Stampin' Up! demonstrators. Thanks to the creator of each card. I went to the Demonstrator resource Stampin' Connection for some inspiration! I love the colours for this card. Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Chocolate Chip and Very Vanilla. I was happy to get to use my music notes wheel which does not seem to get much love for some reason! I found this card on Splitcoast Stampers; the poster didn't give the name of the person who designed it - she sure did a great job! I made a bunch of these and included them in a workshop order as my "thank you". I think it's gorgeous! CASE'd from Anne Laflamme. When I saw the card I used to CASE I was so happy because I would get to use some of the retired vanilla velvety ribbon! I really should make a bunch more so that I use it again! I changed the ornaments so I could use the ones from Ornament Keepsakes but the ones the original designer used (Tree Trimmings - now retired) were perfect! CASE'd from Patty Gorka. This was actually the first card I made with this stamp set. Cards similar to this one have become quite popular. I can see why! Love the new Holiday Frame Embossing Folder! I gave one of these cards to each person who took the ornament class. CASE'd from Lee Ann Barrett. I probably changed more on this one than the others. I stamped the holly branch from Watercolor Winter in StazOn black and coloured them with blender pens. The ornament was stamped and cut out with the matching die. The sentiment was from Joyous Celebrations. The Lacey Brocade Embossing Folder is becoming a new favourite! I used some retired 1/4" old olive grosgrain ribbon to adorn the ornament. CASE'd from Rachel Woollard. It has been fun delighting in the creations of other stampers! Thank you all for sharing! Cindy +++++
