Freshly Made Sketches #622

Jen Mitchell has the cutest Sketch #622 for us at Freshly Made Sketches and their team really made it shine in many ways.  

Here is how it came together in my studio:


This one features a piece of paper I've been hoarding for years - only the best will do for the friend who will receive this little cutie for her birthday!  My little 'arctic' fox is from the HoneyBee Heart Hugs set of dies and the 'ruffle' is an oldie from 
Pinkfresh Studios: Essentials Lacy Edgers.  I tied a slender piece of grey satin ribbon around this panel to represent the band on Jen's sketch.  A few balloons, a sentiment from CCC and my card is complete!

I hope Jen [and the birthday girl] likes it!

  1. This is so pretty. What great use of the paper and I love the little ribbon. A great piece of detail that enhances the card. The grey and white with just tiny hints of other colours look so cool xx

  13. That paper is wonderful and so is that lacy die, Michele. Both work together so make a space for the darling fox - one of my favorites.

  16. Jen likes this very much! As one paper hoarder to another I can totally understand why you only use certain ones for certain special people! The paper, the fox, the balloons, and the lacy edge all combine together into one fabbo card! Bravo!
