May 2012 Card Sketch Challenge

[ScrappinJen]

As I said in the other thread, I'm heading to Arizona tomorrow morning so I need to get this sketch posted tonight. Because I am crunched for time, it is very very simple. I actually created my sample card in less than 15 minutes. That has gotta be some kind of record for me. Anyway, hope you like it and find time to play along.

And here is my sample. The materials are all from Bliss, the Counterfeit Kit sent to me this month by Young Nancy. This card went together so quickly. I think part of the joy of the Counterfeit Kit is that because you didn't go out and buy this stuff with something in mind for it and begin promptly hoarding it, you have no problem using it. At least that's how it seems for me. Loving it. Hope you love this sketch and create something for yourself.

hey... can I have my papers back? J/K I love the sketch and the card, and will get working on mine pronto!
I think you are right - there is a freedom (for me at least) in using the things we send each other.

Nice card Jen! I hope to get to play this month! Work and the twins have gotten in the way of my craft life!

here's my quick card, made using some of the papers from my Counterfeit Kit I got from Jen and trying out my new Goosebumps texture spray. The spray is on the little squares the bird is on. Sprayed with the Goosebumps, then when dry sprayed with some Mister Huey spray.

Really cute birds! So, what are Goosebumps and how are they different from other sprays?

Here is my entry!!! I finally did a sketch.
This card uses a set I have had for a while from Stampin' Up! and used for the first time this week. The card stock is SU and I used Glimmer Mist Pearl over the top the added a touch of stickles to some of the flower area.

Great take on the sketch! I love those soft colors.

Cheryl, I love that card!

Goosebumps come in a spray bottle and they leave a raised lumpy texture. Almost like you had clear embossed the page. Depending upon how close or far you spray you'll get different sized bumps.
