Freshly Made Sketches #750 - A Sketch by Cécile

Welcome to Freshly Made Sketches!  Each week one member of our design team creates a sketch for you to try.  The challenge is to follow our sketch while keeping 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 see what YOU create!

Hello everyone, it's Cécile here with this week's sketch. I kept it simple and graphic but feel free to make your card as whimsical as you like and, most of all, have fun! 

We want to take this opportunity to say farewell, for now, to our dear friend Amy O'Neill.  She will be taking a hiatus from our team (we never really let any team members leave, you see).  Her gorgeous eye for color and her beautiful work has been so admired by both the team and all of you for so many years.  Make sure you stop by her page to share your thoughts with her!

Winners for Sketch 749

The Clean Team has chosen their Princesses for you this week and Jen has chosen the Queen: 

Laurie from Created by Laurie

Wow!  The gallery this week was just amazing!  I can't believe how many different cards there were!  You can tell the seasons are switching as we're seeing more fall, Halloween and Christmas cards!  As soon as I saw Laurie's card I fell in love with it.  Those perfectly coloured leaves paired with that burlap ribbon stole my heart!  I'm a sucker for all things fall!  Congratulations, Laurie! You are this week's Queen of Clean!

Join us tomorrow for a new sketch from Cécile!

Winners for Sketch 748

The Clean Team has chosen their Princesses for you this week and Verena has chosen the Queen: 

Anja from 1stampingnightowl on Instagram

As always, going through the gallery to look at all of your creations was so much fun this week! I loved all the different interpretations of the sketch. Anja's octopus was just too cute and the vibrant colours just spoke to me. The stenciled background ties everything together beautifully. Congratulations, Anja! You are this week's Queen of Clean!

Winners for Sketch 747

The Clean Team has chosen their Princesses for you this week and Kim has chosen the Queen: 

Cindy from Stamps, Paper and Ink

I had such a fun time going through the gallery for this week's sketch.  You are ALL so creative!!  I couldn't believe all of the elements used for the grouping of circles. But funny enough, I kept coming back to a card that actually did use circles! Cindy's card is so eye-catching! I love the colorful rings in each circle even one with the words and a smiley face and then the fun way she did the sentiment. Congratulations, Cindy! You are this week's Queen of Clean!

Join us tomorrow for a new sketch from Verena!

Sketch #747 - A Sketch by Kim

Happy new FMS sketch day! It's Kim and it's my week to bring you the sketch. My idea for this one was a grouping of something (not just circles!) with a dominant sentiment. You'll see from the design team that the circles have become citrus fruit and balloons and gears and trees and so much more! Have fun coming up with your "circles"! I look forward to seeing what you create.

Hello friends!  It's Jen M here as your sketch hostess this week.  Recently I was going through some cards that I made ages ago and found one that I thought was pretty cool so I adapted it for the sketch this week.  I hope you like it - I can't wait to see your interpretations of it!  And if you need some inspiration you need only scroll and see the awesome cards that our design team has made.
