#767 Mario style

 Welcome back.  

I had another crack at this weeks Sketch Saturday challenge.  

This time I used a stamp set from Kindred Stamps

Game On


My little twist this time was to stamp a different image into the 3 panels of a different character that corresponded to that colour.  



And the last colour I left blank as that character I coloured and popped it on top. 



Cut a black card base with a white panel for the front. 


Add the coloured panels.  


Lastly all I needed to do was to colour the 4 images to add to the front.  Then stamp a sentiment to finish.  
Most sketches can be used for most themes.  Will show different ways of how to make the most of a sketch over the week. 
Happy crafting!

#767

 



Hi all!  I am back from the real world to blog about projects once again.  
Having started work, for the first time in over 21years, it kind of took a toll on my crafting time.  
But, I am back, and ready to get into it again.  
This is the first sketch for 2025.  
The optional twist this time around is to use Striped patterned paper



And here is my project.   


I started with my card base, then a white piece that fitted nicely on the front leaving a border of pink.  Then I placed 4 pieces of cardstock that measured 6.5 cm x 4.5cm in size. 2 light pink and 2 pink the same colour as base card. 


Firstly added the white card to the base

Then fitted the 4 on evenly spaced out. 

Then colour, cut and adhere the Kitty image. 

These are the colours I used.

And this is the colour of the hearts.  I substituted the hearts for the 3 squares. 

And I loved this project so much that I made 4 in total.

Owl-some Owls

 

Today is Ink N Splatter time.
I had the privilege of playing with the new release Owl-some Owls stamp set.  I also used the paper pack Blossom Bash.  



Raiding my stash I found an old spellbinders rectangles die fir the main part of the card.  Glued the middle down to the card but popped the border to allow shadows underneath for added dimension.  Used an old Couture Creations gum leaf due for the floral corners and an Heartfelt Creations flower to finish each one off.  
Raided my pre stamped sentiments fir one that suited.  Added some Pinkfresh Studio gems and there you have it.  
I just love their big beautiful eyes.  
Thank you for popping by and don't forget, fir more inspiration head over to the Ink N' Splatter FB page. 
Happy crafting!

Sketch Saturday is back with another great sketch.  


Another great geometrical sketch.  A couple of sketches ago I used cats on the card.  This time I have both a cat and dog.  


I have been in the mood to make some fun, bright and cheerful projects lately.  I love the colour scheme on this one too.  
I used a stencil with a yellow ink to make the background.  The balloons are in place of the circles.  I did throw a banner in there with sane colours as I felt that space needed something.  
This stamp set is a My Favorite Things Presents and Pupcakes.  
Thank you for stopping by.  
Happy crafting!

Sketch Saturday is here. 
Can you believe we are bearing the end of April already?  This year really needs to slow down   



So a very geometrical sketch this week.  I had a little fun with this one.  I used a My Favorite Things set Catitude.  So many people love cats (me included)and I don't have enough cat cards, so when I seen this sketch, that is what I wanted to add to this.  


I kept the colour scheme simple.  Different shades of purple with shades of grey.  
I did originally try different coloured cats but I did not like it.  And honestly, the cats are the hero of this project.  Definitely " catitude"
Thank you for popping in and having a look. Don't forget to check out all the other DT takes on this sketch.  
Happy crafting!

It is Sketch  Saturday time again.  
Here is this week's sketch.


I have been gradually familiarising  myself with some of my older sets.  I found some older background stamps.  This one is a very old SU one.  I needed something to fill the background on this.  Firstly I done it on the Very Vanilla panel.  It was too much.  Then I tried it on the Lost Lagoon with Pretty Peacock ink.  Perfect.  

Added some Pecan Pie circles with stamped leaves from the SU Notes Of Nature set.  Coloured those with copic markers that closely resembled the cardstock colours.  Then to take out some of the colours I added white butterfly skeleton die cuts   added a gem to each one.  

Lastly I added a black bannered sentiment.  Not my normal colour combo but I really the finished product.  

Thank you for popping in.  Don't forget to check out all the other DT projects.  

Happy Crafting!
