A Freshly Made Sketch with Jen

Come and join us at Freshly Made Sketches, Jen Mitchell is our fabulous hostess, and she has the most amazing "clean" creations, click on by and say "hi"!

This sketch is such a fun and versatile design that I am sure you will be instantly inspired to join in the fun with us.

I used calypso coral for this card - it sure is a pretty colour! I used lots of embossing and even stitched my text panel, added a little Kaisercraft flower to my bow, a sentiment panel with a few scattered butterflies and I'm done!

Have a fun week, and in the meantime drop by and check out all the inspiration goodness by our fabulous team!

Thanks for stopping by and happy stamping!

Hello Tui,

This is lovely. Love the coral and black - very elegant.

Coral and black??!! Unbelievably pretty! Add that to my list of colors to try. Fantastic use of the sketch. Love that little frame!

Patrice said...

Wow very pretty! Love the addition of a little black and that resin flower is perfect!

It's so great to see the use of this color! I have the paper but so rarely use it outside of Halloween! It's great to see it showcased like in your card - to get away from being so locked in and trying to use colors outside of "traditional" color seasons! Thanks!

Wowza! Who knew Calypso Coral was such a star! Hmm I think you are the star!

Christine Blain said...

WOW! The coral looks amazing, Tui. Love this beautiful, clean card with all the little details (perfect colour matching with the resin flower, too!).

Jen said...

These colors are gorgeous together! The newsprint is perfect with the coral and black accents. You have such a knack for making a card say "WOW!"

Anne Marie Hile said...

Wow, you absolutely rocked this sketch and completely made me fall in love with Calypso Coral! The newsprint, the texture and the overall crisp design is perfectly you, too. Love your style, Tui!

Such an awesome bold colour combo! The embossing and printed panel are just wonderful!

Lynda said...

Bold and bright definitely Tui. The black definitely breaks up the impact of the coral. I have not introduced myself to the new In colours yet. I love the dry embossing...adds fab interest. ooxx

Cindy Hall said...

Wow! Very pretty. I love all of the elements: the embossing, the stitching, the ribbon and flower, the colors, just everything! TFS!
