Using my stash - Take 2

Image
Goodmorning everyone!  Hope you had a fabulous Saturday night ;)  So I'm going to show you my 2nd take with the wonderful sketch from Fetch a sketch. I had so much fun using my stash for the 1st card that I decided to do the same for the next one.  I was also inspired by the challenge over at Casual Friday to do a Christmas card in under 10 minutes.  Well if the paper is already in my stash and it's a simple sketch that's a breeze.  Plus it meant that I finally used a big flower that I had and had not been able to use so far.  Plus I now have a few Christmas cards for next year lol So here it is: So the paper is from my stash as is the big flower.  The ribbon was on one of the gift that I got at Christmas love to reuse!!!  The sentiment is from  Create with tlc .  I had a bunch that I had pre-printed and not used so this was just perfect: For this card I followed this sketch: I'm entering this card in the following challenges: Fetch-a-sketch  - Ske

Using up my stash - Take 1

Image
Hello Everyone!  Hope you had a wonderful Saturday!  I was busy crafting!!!!  I made a lot of cards for my upcoming DT work ;)  This way I will not be stressed with deadlines.  I really do hate deadlines with a passion. I've been wanting to participate at Fetch a Sketch and I had a great idea!  Well I think it's great lol and I got to use all kinds of left overs that I had. For this card I used some left over papers in my scrap pile and some ribbon that I got on one of my gifts.  The flower was a freebie that I received and it's pretty big... so I didn't  know how to use it but now I figured it's just perfect as the central piece.  I used vintage photo distress ink on the sentiment. Here's the sketch that I followed: I'm entering this card in the following challenges: Fetch-a-sketch  - Sketch Hotshot craft  - CAS Aud sentiments challenge  - use a sentiment Simon says stamps  - Anything goes Moving along with the times  - thank you ca
