Freshly Made Sketches #278

Hello! Today's card is for Freshly Made Sketches 278.


My card uses a stamp set from My Favorite Things.


I used die cuts from Memory Box and Lawn Fawn. Background paper is from Doodlebug Designs.
 I colored the image with colored pencils blended with Gamsol. I have been seeing a lot of posts with paper piecing. This stamp set is just perfect for that!

Thanks for visiting!  -Barb

Freshly Made Sketches 276

Welcome! Today's card if for Freshly Made Sketches 276. I really liked this sketch! I think this is a favorite of mine so far!


I rarely use pattern paper as a card base. I did this time and I really like the result!


I used the opposite side of the pattern paper to frame the white panel. I then used Distress inks direct to paper to create the background. I used the pattern paper to make the daisies.


Stamp is an oldie but goodie from Stampendous.
Thanks for stopping by! See you next time!
