Inspire.Create. Stamping Challenges


Hello and welcome I am Karen Farquhar from Australia and I thank you for joining me today for Inspire.Create Stamping Challenge #059. I am writing this post Christmas Eve but by the time it goes live it will be Boxing Day the day everyone heads to the shops for the post-Christmas sales. Everyone except myself that is I'm saving my pennies for the new Stampin' Up! catalogue coming in about a weeks time. However I do hope your Christmas sparkled and your new Year will shine with love, hope and joy.

Today we have a sketch challenge for you. How exciting! I had a bit of fun with this one. My head was in a spin thinking of all the different ideas I could use. I hope it inspires you as well.

I needed a card to coordinate with the framed wreath I had stamped for my Secret Santa gift (photographed further below) so I used the same colours and stamps. This is the card I submitted for the challenge.





And of course you can't give a gift without a coordinating gift tag.



I have used a variety of inks and stamps to stamp the framed wreath which I have provided thumbnails for below











I did mention I had a number of ideas for this sketch so here is another one. I have used some of the same stamp sets but a different colour combination for this card.
