7 Days 7 sketches - Day 4

Hi everyone,

a quick card - I am still totally exhausted from yesterday....but I had to make that card, after all I really want to do all those 7 sketches for 7 Days 7 sketches....
This one is a busy one - one of those layouts, but I make cards......


As you can see I did not really change much.


But I am really happy with the result and it went really fast. Used my MME paper pad - they had those at Michaels for 50% off.....Had to buy one (ehm two...) Got the colors from Just Add Ink and stayed with that modern vibe.
The die cut and stamp are by Papertrey - Wet Paint and as luck will have it I cut the striped paper just as wide as the sentiment...didn't know I would use it when I cut the paper.



Also linking up with:

Seize the Birthday - no topping for me
Just Add Ink - see picture
Snippets Playground - use a snippet (aqua paint chip and gold die cuts)
Crafty Hazelnut's Patterned Paper challenge - use PP



         

Happy stamping!

Wieder eine echt coole, moderne Karte von dir! Tolle Muster und Farbkombi! Ja, manchmal hat man Glück und schneidet das Papier genauso wie man es braucht (und manchmal auch nicht)...

I just LOVE how you've placed the sentiment on this card, Cornelia - how fabulous that the "birthday" fits perfectly down the side of the striped paper! The pops of gold look awesome. Thanks for joining in the fun at Just Add Ink this week!
Your card is so trendy: mint, gold foil, bold Petern! Cool effect)

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey. And here are bigger photos from this set: Linking up with Creative with Stamps - Easter The Paper Players - die cutting Die Cut Divas - animals Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.
