Sketch Week at Addicted to Stamps and More!

By
We have an absolute cracker of a sketch this week for you this week - take a look


As soon as I saw this sketch I knew exactly what I wanted to do - and for once it worked!! Here is my card


This is where Double Sided Paper comes into it's own - I cut a few diagonal lines on my paper and folded it back. 1 - it reveals the gorgeous underside of the paper and 2 - leaves an area perfect for framing an image. The image in this instance is this year's retired Sale-a-bration set Fresh Vintage. The stamp has been coloured with Stampin' Write markers, really quick and really easy. Markers are perfect for adding coloured detail to your stamps and come in all the current Stampin' Up colours.


All you have to do now is head on over to Addicted to Stamps and More, take a look at all the other gorgeous dt cards and then have a go yourself - I can't wait to see what you do - bye for now - Jacqueline xx

Materials
Stamps: Fresh Vintage
Ink: Lucky Limeade, Poppy Parade, Pool Party and Peach Parfait markers
Card stock: Whisper White
Paper: Everyday Enchantment DSP
All the above (except for the retired items) can be ordered by me and delivered direct to your door - see the top tab for details.

    Gorgeous card Jacqueline - great minds eh?! Love this designer b/p - it really comes into it's own with this technique. You've coloured the image absolutely perfectly.

    How's that for a simple sketch? Love how you've interpreted it using the matching stamp and papers

    What a brilliant idea Jacqueline! The patterns look gorgeous together (of course!) and I love the way you used the coordinating stamp for the centre. Vicky x

    I love your card! It is so clean and simple but beautiful! Your stamped image is colored so nicely. That one can be kind of tough! I loved it and the DSP and miss the both dearly. :(

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr...
