Stampin' Up! Embraced with Love ~ Sketch Saturday


Hellooo! Welcome to my blog.  Today's card was created for Sketch Saturday's Challenge #765, which is to choose a sketch from the Sketch Saturday Archives.  The optional twist for this week's challenge is to choose a sketch from 2014.  Unfortunately, I once again forgot to look at that part ahead of time and ended up choosing #627 from September 12, 2020.

 

I love simple sketches like this one!  They are perfect to get your creative juices flowing!  You can keep them clean and simple, or really jazz them up.  For this one, I kept it pretty simple.


It's always so nice to just sit and color a stamped image.  For this one, I chose to use Stampin' Blends, which are Stampin' Up!'s alcohol markers.  They are easy to color with and blend beautifully.  After putting my card together, I decided that it needed a bit more of something.  So, I simply stamped my image again on a small piece of Basic White Cardstock, colored it and fussy cut the image.  I love how it looks popped up over the first image.  


Thank you for visiting my blog today.  Which sketch will you chose to as your inspiration this week?  Will you try more than one?  I do hope you will share with us over on the Sketch Saturday Challenge Post.  We love to be inspired by you, too!

Happy Stamping!

Stampin' Up! Reindeer Fun ~ Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop


 Hey Stamper! Welcome to the Ink & Inspiration Blog Hop. I'm excited to be part of this fun & creative group sharing stamping inspiration with you today. 


Our inspiration this month came from the photo below.  While I love the photo of the bird, I decided to go a different route and use the colors as my inspiration.
