Day 2 Sketch Blog Hop with Crafty Card Gallery

Hi and welcome to day 2 of the Sketch Challenge if you can from Beth's blog then you are in the right place. Today I decided to take the sketch and turn a card into something a little more special. I made an easel card and used the sketch as the front of the card. I love making cards that are dimensional, although require a little more time to make I think they are well worth the effort when giving to a special person. this card will be going to one of my customers mum's for his mum's birthday!

Materials used : Kaisercraft coconut cardstock, Patterned paper from the Kaiser Charlotte's Dream collection, Kaiser Magnolia Grove stamps, Kaisercraft  peals, brads and paper blooms, Distress Ink and Copic markers. All these products and more can be found over at my store www.kerryscraftycardsandcuts.com.au

Thanks for stopping by and following the hop! Please see post below for link to next blog.

Happy scrappin' till next time

Sketch Challange Hop with Crafty Card gallery

Welcome to the June Sketch Blog Hop. Everyone has had so much fun doing these it's turned into a regular event! The purpose of this hop is to show how all of these talented bloggers can take the same sketch and come up with totally different cards. If you've never used a card sketch before, give it a try! You should have arrived from Beth's Blog  . If not, be sure to go back to the start at www.craftycardgallery.blogspot.com. Grab your favorite beverage and sit back & hop along with us!

It has been a while since I joined in as I have been busy with my business and life in general!..but i'm back, and after completing the challenge I realized how much I have missed them! I love working with sketches and I hardly ever do exactly the sketch and always can end up making several cards that don't look anything like it! I have made three cards today....

Here's the sketch:

Card 1 - most like the sketch we have been given! I love this paper..3 Bugs in a Rug Dawson collection. With 2 young boys in my house this collection is a must!

I have been cleaning up my craft room over the past few days and decided that i was not going to use any brand new sheets of paper from my stash until my HUGE pile of scraps were used up! I had more of this paper so decided to make another 2 cards :)

Notice that these don't look anything like the sketch we got given! I will have another card for you all tomorrow to see based on the sketch..and this one will be a little more special, so be sure to pop back tomorrow to see it! 

Your next stop is Tonia's Blog

Day 2 of 30 day Challange

Wow, as expected I hav already fallen behind! I have been working hard on a little mini Album for a swap and one of my pages happens to fit into the description of the day 3 word which was Recycle. So a sneak peek of my Mini album which i will post next week once my swap Girl recieves the album. I recycled a sewing paper for the flower and tag. I love how it turnd out and the flower is so simple, just several circles joined together with a brad and then each circle layer scrunched up into centre, with a perl to finish it off! I hope to finish this album tonight then to catch up on some of the other challange words! This Saturday is also another blog hop with the Crafty Card Gallery so be sure to stop over and see what that is all about!

Happy Scrappin' xx
