Sketch Saturday Challenge 774 ~ Optional Twist: Add Embellishments

Hi Crafty Friends,

I have a new Sketch Saturday challenge sketch for you.

Sketch 774 has the optional twist to add embellishments.  You don't have to ask my twice since I love adding embellies to my projects.

The patterned papers are Crafter's Companion.  I used Spellbinders 3D embossing folder SES065 to add dimension to the largest circle.  The butterfly is from Pinkfresh Studio's Butterfly Washi and I used Jaded Blossom's Stitched Circles to die cut the circle shapes.

Here's the sketch for your inspiration.


You can upload your project HERE.

Cut it Up Challenge #328 ~ Starts with a C

Hi Crafty Friends,

Are you ready for Easter.  Even though my "girls" are adults, we still love Easter Brunch, Easter Baskets, and Egg Hunts!!  How about you?

It's also time to share our next Cut it Up Challenge ~ Starts with a C.

This is one of the Easter cards I mailed out this year.


This is a mini stamp set from Jaded Blossom.  The dies are an add on.  The tag is also a Jaded Blossom as are the adorable glasses.

Here's the card I shared on the CIU blog.


I designed this card for my hubby's birthday and then realized there were Cattails - woohoo.
The stamp is from Gina K designs and the stencil is from SCT.  I used Jaded Blossom's stitched ovals and card mat dies along with So Many Birthdays stamp and die.

We hope you'll play along HERE.
