Freshly Made Sketches #184

Welcome to Freshly Made Sketches!  Each week, one member of our design team creates a sketch for you to try, the twist is to keep your project clean-lined and fresh! The "Clean Team" has come up with some "Freshly Made" designs to get you in the spirit! We are so excited to visit your blog and to see what YOU create with our sketch!

It's always a happy day when there's a new Freshly Made Sketch!  Kim here.  This week I am challenging you to go over-the-edge!  I want to see something hanging off the edge of the card.  You might want to consider adjusting the size of the front of your card so that it still fits in a regular envelope.  For example, if your shape goes over the edge by 1/4", make your card front only 4" wide instead of the standard 4 1/4".  If your shape goes over by 1/2", make your card front 3 3/4", etc.  I hope you have fun with this - I'm looking forward to seeing how you handle this challenge!

The Queen of Clean:  Sarah from Sazzle Dazzle Crafts

The gallery was fabulous this week!   Your designs were amazing!  I found Sarah's card striking because of those beautifully watercolored flowers!  The green stems show them off perfectly!  The tag, texture and angled stripes are wonderful details that add to the charm of this card!  Beautifully done Sarah!

Hi Everyone!  It's Linda and I am hosting this week.  I've heard that good designs often have elements of three so I kept that in mind with my sketch - two horizontal elements and a vertical.  Interpret them as you see fit!  I will be stopping by to see all of your creative work!  I am always in awe of the samples in our gallery.....looking forward to yours!

The Queen of Clean:  Nina-Marie from Nina-Marie Design

Another amazing week of stunning cards!  You guys really make our sketches shine.   :)    I loved so many of the entries and it was hard to pick just one.   Nina-Marie really caught my eye with her amazing sky and moon, so I just had to pick her as our queen this week.   She got in some many details and so much texture while still keeping her card clean.  I just love it!   Congratulations, Nina-Marie!

Rita here with the sketch this week.  I love simple sketches that allow for a lot of interpretation, so I hope you enjoy this one.  Layer it, keep it simple, use some different shapes...just have fun!  I can't wait to see what you make.

The Queen of Clean:  Martina from My Papercraft Corner

Thank you all for playing along with us!  Once again our gallery was filled to the brim with your beautiful and creative interpretations of the sketch!  I loved perusing your cards and I'm sure you know how difficult it is to choose just one favorite.  In the end I chose Martina's clean and simple card. I love the stitched details and how the perfectly placed cluster of flowers looks in these refreshing colors.  Plus the addition of the sentiment embossed in silver on a vellum layer is just beautiful!   Congratulations, Martina!  You are our Queen of Clean this week.
