Make a Wish and a Sketch!

It's been a while since I posted a sketch, so I thought that I would give you one today to start off your week! This one was inspired by a card in the SU! catty.

This is another SU! S-A-S card, but I hope to be back later today with a MFTeaser! Oh, are you going to love those sets!!!

I used my Jersey Shore PP for the strip, and Big Bold Birthday for the image and sentiment. There is some glitter glue on the icing, and the icing is popped up on Dimensionals. This is a quick and easy peasy sketch that I hope that you'll try. If you do, remember to link it back here, and you can put "ked7" in the keyword section if you upload it to SCS.

Now, I'm off to a playdate! Have a great one and check back here soon! :)

Simple Card Sketch

This is a clean and simple card from a clean and simple sketch. I used my Lizzie Anne set, Happy Birthday, for this and my new PTI paper, ink, and ribbon. The flower and brad are Bazzill.

I used my Stamp-a-ma-jig to line up the sentiment so that the tiny flower became the larger flower's center. You can do so many things with negative image stamps! The line of candles, though, is probably my favorite stamp. Well, I hope that you'll try the sketch - it's a breeze! Remember to let me know if you do, by leaving a comment here with your link. You can also add ked6 to the keyword section, if you upload it to SCS. Love to see what you do with it!

Remember to stay tuned for tomorrow's MFTeasers! I'll have two - one in the am and one during the Cocktail Party tomorrow night! Hope to "see" you all there (and here!)! More info on that is to follow...

Life's Simple Pleasures

Don't have time to chat this morning, but here's a little sketch for you to mull over, and hopefully try. Let me know if you do, so that I can go check it out! You can add ked5 to the keywords on SCS, or just comment me the link!
BTW, the Release Party over on SCS last night was a blast for MFT! Make sure that you go over to the website to check out the new sets!!!

Hugs, and hope you like the card! Oh, and the sketch is pretty specific, BUT you certainly DON'T have to add all of the same elements where I did to link the card! Just have fun - it's only for inspiration!!! :)

Time for a Sunday Sketch!

Yeah, I know that I've been MIA the past few days. I've been enjoying a little blog siesta! I try to post everyday (and I normally DON'T mind doing it), but sometimes, I just need a little break, kwim? :) I've been trying to clean up my highly UNorganized stamp room today, but thought I'd take a second and post this card/sketch that I pulled together a week or two ago.

I used this sketch before - you may remember seeing it here - but I liked it so much I made a couple more! This was inspired by a card that I saw in the new SU! catty. Don't you just love the Riley Moose-s??? ;) This one is one of my favorites!

Here's the sketch...

I hope that you give it a try! It comes together pretty quickly! Don't forget to comment here with a link to your project, if you do whip one up! :) Also, you can put "ked4" in the keyword section, if you upload it to SCS.

Well, now I'm off to finish the task at hand! Have a good rest of the weekend!

Good Gossip

This is the sketch that I promised you yesterday! I made this card several days ago, and soon I'll show you another card that I made with this sketch, too. I think it's quick and easy, but still packs a punch! This is a 5 in. sq. card, but you can adapt it to any size square or even a standard A2 size.

The Bella stamp is one of my newer ones, and I love it because you can use it for so many sentiments. Which brings me to the sentiment, and that comes from MFT's Twisted Sentiment set. There's a secret link (CLICK HERE) to the MFT website page (so not to offend the unsuspecting shopper - you'll see what I mean if you click on the above link...), where this is offered. You have to check it out. Trust me, this is the "tamest" one of the bunch! LOL

Well, that's about it for now! Make sure if you try the sketch that you leave a comment with a link to this post, so I can check it out! I'd LOVE to see what you do with it! Oh, and if you post the picture to SCS, then add ked3 to the keyword section, too. That way I can't miss it! :)

Have a wonderful rest of the weekend, and make sure to make it stampy! ;) Till tomorrow...

Let it Snow (And a Sketch!)

This is the last of my Lizzie Anne Catalog cards, and it's probably my favorite. This is one of my favorite color combinations, so I was very happy with this card. It uses the set Christmas in the City.

As you can see, I've included the sketch for this card. I particularly liked the fact that you can let the embossing shine in that large panel, or show off some of that hoarded patterned paper. :)

Just like last time, if you decide to try this sketch, PLEASE let me know about it! I want to see them, so leave a comment in this thread with your link! Also, if/when you upload them to SCS, add "ked2" to the keyword section. That way, I'm sure to see it!

Tomorrow should bring a fun little Riley card. See you then!

Dibs on Your Organs

I've had my eye on this sentiment over on the Hambo website for, what seems like, forEVer! It cracks me up every time!!! Wait for it... Now read what's on the inside...
If you can't read it, it says "Dibs on your organs!". LOLOL I know it's a little morbid, but I still think it's hilarious!!!

Also, for this card, I've joined every other blogger in Stampland in creating a sketch with my computer. I used my paint program, and after MANY painstaking minutes, I was able to figure it out! LOL
I hope that you find it helpful. PLEASE leave me a comment if you do, and I'll try and make one more often. I don't think I can pin myself to have a "weekly sketch" type of thing, but I'll do my best! (I started off doing the "Card of the Week", but didn't get a whole lot of response, so I sort of fazed it out. This will most likely be more random.) I'd LOVE your feedback!

If you use the sketch, link it here. And if you post it over on SCS, put ked1 (no space) in the keyword section, so that I can easily find it to leave you a comment. :)

Well, that's about it! I hope that you like it! Tomorrow should bring you a little Lizzie Anne birthday set that I think turned out pretty cute. See you then!
