Welcome to Freshly Made Sketches #700!
Freshly Made Sketches is celebrating a big milestone this week with the 700th challenge and 14 years of inspiration!!!! The sketch is a throwback to FMS14 and was designed by the challenge creator, Lesley Croghan. Although I stepped down from the Clean Team a few months ago, I am thrilled to be invited to play along with them this week!
The aqua and gray squares were die cut and adhered in their grid with washi tape to keep the edges clean as Tim Holtz Distress Snowfall Grit Paste was applied with a Taylored Expressions Breezy Stencil. While it dried to a translucent, frosty finish the Poppystamps Birthday Blowout sentiment was heated embossed in Liquid Platinum onto a oval piece of vellum.
The the MFT Fab Foliage and Wild Greenery dies are attached along their spines to the gray tiles and then the sentiment oval slipped into place amongst the leaves.
For a little extra fun, Clean Team designers are posting the first card they created to play along with Freshly Made Sketches. For me, it was for FMS117 way back in December 2013!


My card is also being entered in Seize the Birthday #311 No Flowers challenge.
I hope you check out the amazing Clean Team designs at Freshly Made Sketches and play along with us this week!
Thanks for stopping by,
Jacquie
