Freshly Made Sketches #399

Welcome to Freshly Made Sketches!





Clean Team designer, Jennifer Brum, gives us a fun sketch to work with this week at Freshly Made Sketches.




I pulled out a very old MFT set of camera charms, cutting them twice so the gray details could be inset to contrast with the black base. A touch of Glossy Accents on the lenses and simple Lawn Fawn sentiment finish this card.




I hope you check out the fabulous design team cards at Freshly Made Sketches and play along with us!

Thanks for stopping by,

Freshly Made Sketches #398



Clean Team designer Cécile Ribon's lovely, elegant style shines through in our sketch this week!

The black dashed diagonal line in the background had me thinking of stitching and quilting, which led to the Concord & 9th Flutter die being cut a few times and pieced together. 




It took a while to settled on the brick embossed wall background but once I did,  I cut another butterfly in black to layer on top of my original white outline and stand out a bit more from the wall. An Altenew sentiment finishes off my design.




I hope you will join us at Freshly Made Sketches this week! Remember, any shape or image can be substituted for the butterfly.

Thanks for stopping by,

Freshly Made Sketches #397




It took a bit of thinking and flipping through my stamp sets before settling on an idea for this fabulous sketch from Clean Team designer Kim Singdahlsen. Once I saw the checklist in MFT Perk Up stamp set, I had my trio element and the rest of the design came together pretty quickly.




A gray panel is embossed with the Tim Holtz coffee cups to provide a little extra texture and interest as the Memory Box Coffee On The Go die cut cups were kept clean and simple. 




The Clean Team has wonderful inspiration for you this week. I hope you check out their cards and join in the fun with us at Freshly Made Sketches!

Thanks for stopping by,
