Edited to add: This is last week's sketch. Be sure to check out
the Freshly Made Sketches blog for the newest sketch.
It's time for a new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches! Today we have a sketch by Jen Mitchell.
I like the quirky look of the angled panel so I decided I needed to add another card to my stash for my college student. I had this "oh frap!" that I hadn't used and it seemed like the perfect fit.
I then went looking for a coffee cup (or a frappuccino mug!) I almost hit a roadblock there. Most of mine were either too big for the card or they were too "nice" for the sentiment. I finally saw this very old set by Papertrey Ink. It also has cute little swirls of steam and my original card used them until I remembered that frappuccinos are cold. Bummer, because it was a nice design element.
I hope to see you playing along!

ReplyDeleteCute take on the sketch Kim and I like the colors!
ReplyDeleteYour son is going to love this! Great colors and a fun take on the sketch, too! That stitched woodgrain looks perfect on that base. Interest without too much froo-froo! I really do like this card. Yep! Bev
ReplyDeleteFrantastic card! Bold colors and coffee...perfection!
ReplyDeleteThese cups are adorable! This clueless non-coffee drinker would have totally loved steaming cups of frappuccino. Coffee lingo is a foreign language to me but I can smile at this sentiment.
ReplyDeleteThat sentiment! It's perfect for a multitude of reasons! I love this card. The colors, the stitched woodgrain, and the "steamless" mugs all make one fabulous card!
ReplyDeleteOh Kim! I love this card! That sentiment is hilarious! Love those little cups and the fabulous colours! So fun!
ReplyDeleteI really love this card and the sentiment that goes with it. And I have to add that your cup in the background really tickled me - I have a daughter that LOVES foxes. :)
ReplyDeleteHa! I love it! I have smiled every time I've seen your card!
