LOVELY & FREE


Welcome to my blog.  Another day and another lovely card and sketch.  This sketch and card are different for me.  I've designed 24 new sketches for 2026, and they are all so different from other years.  This particular sketch doesn't use an image, only a statement, and the focal point of the card is the design paper.

Sketch # 319
This sketch is totally different from my normal sketches.  There are so many beautiful design papers on the market, and sometimes our images we use cover those design papers up.


A very easy sketch, and I'm so pleased with the finished result.
Don't forget to check out what the rest of the design team has created using one of my sketches, and also, there is a blast from the past retro sketch.

Challenges I'm Entering:
1. Base: White French Linen card stock.
2. Coloured Card: Lipstick by American Crafts
3. Design Papers: Recollections Spring Posies

4. Sentiment: Lovely & Free from the Spring Posies collection.
5. Butterfly Dies Used: Joy Craft Butterflies and unbranded die butterflies.
6. Dies Used:
Spellbinders Large & Small Classic Squares.
7. Tools Used:

8. Embellishments:
9. Inside and the back of the card.
Happy crafting, everyone, and I look forward to seeing what you do with this sketch.

Clearly you are a lovely of flowers as am Kathie, it's another lovely card. But not sure what stamping there is, required at SS and WLS challenges?
