Hello TMS friends! Thank you for stopping by. The latest revisited sketch is up at Tuesday Morning Sketches and this one was originally posted May 2014.
Card features foil and flowers. Well, flower.
Hello! Thank you for stopping by. Color My Heart Color Dare #610 is up and ready for your fun and creativity!
This challenge is....
I chose Lagoon, Flamingo and Peach. I did take a bit of liberty with these shades opting for more vibrant colors.
This card is simple but I think turned out so cool! Firstly, I took a piece of Not Your Mama's card stock from Brutus Monroe. This card stock is 130# and, although not watercolor card, can stand up to the moisture that is added when using Chroma Glazes that are also Brutus Monroe. I chose the pastel shades but when they dry their color is not so much pastel as it is vibrant and gorgeous! While the glaze was drying I die cut the cross hatch design using a die from a die set Tonic Studios released a month or so ago. I pushed the die cut pieces into the glaze. No need for glue! Then when completely dry I added the sentiment which was also part of the recent release from Tonic Studios. Originally my intention was only to impress the pattern into the glaze but I liked it so much that I just left it there.
I hope you'll join us at Color My Heart Color Dare. See you there!
Hello, hello, hello! So happy you decided to drop by. The latest revisited sketch is up at Tuesday Morning Sketches and this one is a good one by Debbie.
My card features a collection from Stamperia called Welcome Home (I think). It's been sitting in the corner of my craft room for so long, it was high time to pull it out. I got to make art journal pages, but I don't think I've even made one with it so far but this probably my 2nd or 3rd card.
No stamping, no coloring - just me and a pair of scissors. I cut out all the elements and just put my card together. It was that easy! It still took a long time to make, but only because I was listening to a thrilling audiobook and stopped to just listen. LOL!
I do hope you like the card and it inspires you to pull out supplies you may have forgotten or been hoarding. Please come on over to Tuesday Morning Sketches and leave the girls some love, too!
Hello friends! Thank you for stopping by. The next celebration sketch is posted and we're ready to have some fun.
My card features dies and paper from Brutus Monroe. I saw this really cute card in a recent edition of the newsletter from 12x12 Cardstock - this is a great shop. If you've never purchased from them, I highly recommend them. I placed an order and it was shipped the very same day! Wonderful service and selection. Anyway, the card idea is by their design team member Kate. I thought it would be perfect for this sketch. What do you think?
It's kind of fun, but honestly, I just felt it uses too much card stock. The top opens to the right and the bottom to the left. It would be really cute to make the bottom a pocket and slip in a gift card.
I hope you join us - see you at the Tuesday Morning Sketches blog.

Hello friends! Thank you for stopping by. It's a special month at Tuesday Morning Sketches - we're 15 years old. I cannot believe I started this blog 15 years ago - time has just flown by. We're going to celebrate this whole month by revisiting sketches from 2014. I know, I should have picked 2015 - but I did this for a reason.
My card features the June Tonic Craft Kit. There's just something about citrus that makes me really happy. Now why did I pick 2014? It's because we still had the very talented Jessi Fogan with us. I miss her dearly. If you've followed TMS for a long time you'll remember her creativity and... ahem... sense of humor. Still she was so kind and loved her family so much, raising an autistic son. So we're starting off this celebration by remembering Jessi.
This picture isn't the greatest, but I had to take it outside early in the morning - which has been the only time we've had sunshine. Every day by mid-morning it's cloudy and by late afternoon the thunderstorms start.
I stamped the different citrus stamps that came in the kit on the base panel, matting to a piece of orange glitter card. Then I made the flags using scraps of paper, including the same orange glitter card. Then I made the orange using a larger circle die and then layering the dies that came in the kit to create a cut open orange. I added the leaves because I think it looks pretty.
I do hope you'll join us for the challenge and because it's our birthday - there's presents all month long!
Hello friends. Thank you for stopping by. I appreciate your visit. The latest sketch is up at Tuesday Morning Sketch and I think you might find this one rather fun!
My card features svg cuts that I got from the Silhouette Design Store, foils from Brutus Monroe and card and wave die from Tonic Studios. Check this cutie out....
Here you can see the shine of the foil and a bit of glittery goodness on the sentiment. This card was a joy to create! I hope it inspires you to have some fun with stuff in your stash as it did me!
