Freshly Made Sketches #724

Hello my friends!  It's that time of the week to introduce you to another of our Freshly Made Sketches!  This week, Jen B. designed Sketch #724 for our card-making pleasure...


The possibilities for those prime circles are endless! But I saw a die used
by another card maker recently and quickly brought it to my desktop
so I wouldn't forget to incorporate it into my design!

I hope you think it works!


My Anemone is from Spellbinders, and the hand die is from 
Ellen Hutson many, many years ago - sorry it's no longer available.
That debossed panel came to fruition using a SU! Gathering Leaves EF that
was inked on the raised side before running it through my Switch.


Are the ideas brewing in your creative brains?  We sure hope so
as we sure love seeing all those ideas come to fruition!
You have plenty of time - maybe even for second helpings -
until Monday, February 23rd at 3pm EST.

  1. Well, I miss your hugs too my friend and this card is wonderful!! I love the hand (with the skinny fingers and lovely nail polish!) and the Anemone in place of the circles in the sketch, and your background using the debossed side of the folder made a perfect backdrop! Sweet, sweet card my friend!! Hugs. :0)

  11. Perfect, Michele! The hand die I have is too big for the sketch but I have used it holding a flower. It's a great gesture to go along with the sentiment. Save up those hugs for next summer.
