Card Sketch Challenge Inspiration with Samantha M!

Samantha is here today to share some super fun inspiration for our Card Sketch challenge!

Samantha started by stamping and coloring the images from Mice on Ice and the trees from Yeti Set Go with Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers before fussy cutting them out!

For the sketch, Samantha first turned the sketch upside down and used the Stitched Pond as the rectangle element! She used Distress ink in Peacock Feathers, Cracked Pistachio and Mermaid Lagoon for the cool blended colors! She placed the trees and the jumping mouse along the edge of the pond to represent the banner, so clever!

The main greeting is found in Ho-Ho-Holidays which is white embossed on Black Licorice cardstock. Samantha added a cute speech bubble from Say What? Pets as the circle element, with a message from Oh What Fun! To stack the sentiment to fit in the speech bubble, Samantha masked each word before stamping on vellum. Then she embossed the speech bubble and sentiment using clear embossing powder.

Thank for sharing this adorable inspiration with us today, Samantha!

The Card Sketch Challenge will be open until Sunday, November 3 at 11:59PM ET. We hope you will join us!

Check out the How to Play page for a few guidelines to play along. We want this to be FUN so we’ll keep the rules to just a few!

Now let’s see how our amazing Design Team was inspired by the card sketch!

Christy‘s card is so beautiful! The silhouette of Santa’s sleigh flying over the moon and the snow frosted trees are from Ready Set Snow and they create a wonderful scene for the skating mouse!

Joyce‘s awesome design shows that she can think totally outside the box! Her Woodland Critter Huggers deer is the circle element and Mini String of Lights is the banner! How cute is this card?

Samantha followed the sketch pretty closely in making this awesome Halloween card! She combined Beam Me Up, Pick of the Patch, Hats Off to You and Holiday Party Animal along with Bunting Borders and a silver glitter Scalloped Circle! That inky green background is so cool!

Franci used the scripty sentiment from Mice on Ice to give the idea of a banner and Stitched Pond as the circle on her adorable card design! She added to the greeting using Offset Sayings: Christmas!

Samantha M flipped the sketch upside down! She used the Stitched Wave Borders as the banner and the half Rainbow as the circle! She finished her gorgeous design with Winter Narwhal and Christmas Fishes!

For everyone not ready to let go of Summer Karin created a beautiful card based on the card sketch! (Of course it’s still hot this week in So Cal so I’m more than ready for Fall!) Karin’s fun On the Beach scene uses the beach ball as the circle and the beach towel to suggest a banner!

Jessica‘s gorgeous card features Mice on Ice and Stitched Pond! The Stitched Snowflakes are a clever way to add the circle element from the sketch!

Caly got really creative and made a beautiful birthday shaker card! She used Stitched Cupcake and the cute little bunting from Scalloped Box Card Pop-Up for the sketch elements. Outside In Stitched Rectangle Stackables created the shaker window that works with the sketch! I love the Chunky Glitter on the cupcake frosting and the colorful “sprinkles” as shaker bits; it’s all in the details!

We will share Design Team inspiration for you over the next 2 weeks and we’ll announce our Featured Fawnatics and random winner for Challenge 62 tomorrow!
