Freshly Made Sketches: Birthday Wishes

It's time for a new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches! Today we have a sketch by Jen.


I look at the sketch and right next to my computer keyboard were some new dies that I had to index and put away.  (Yes - I index all of my dies on my computer - that should tell you that I have a few too many!)  One of those was my monthly Small Die of the Month Club set from Spellbinders - sketch on the screen, the die on my desk - perfect!!

FMS Birthday Wishes

The set came with three circular die cut sentiments and a couple of ways to cut the outside of the sentiments (I used scallops) - plus a flower and leaves.  I knew I wanted to surround the sentiment with the flowers so I found a scrap of floral paper that would coordinate.  Then I found the gray stripe - I love the way colors pop on gray. 

I hope to see you playing along with us this week!

  1. Gray? Check. Pink? Check. Flowers and stripes? Double check. Your card has it all, Kim! All the most perfect elements, plus a fabulous take on that sketch! This is really a 'dainty' delight! As cards should evoke some kind of emotion, this one has made me smile inside and out. I think I pretty much love this little sweetie! Bev
