Happy New Year!! I am so excited to start off the new year of Freshly Made Sketches as the sketch hostess. I knew that after all the hustle and bustle of the holidays, it would be nice for everyone to work with a basic sketch. I embellished my sketch with hearts but any shape will do.
I wanted to really focus on the new Tea for Two DSP from the Spring Catalog. The catalog goes into effect tomorrow (Jan. 3rd) so you will be able to start ordering these amazing products! I used my Beautiful Butterflies Die and my Beautiful Wings Embosslit to pop out these pretty butterflies. I love them against this So Saffron print! I embellished the big butterfly with the new 5/8″ Flower Trim (I cut off just one) and some Basic Pearls. Some retired Soft Suede Taffeta Ribbon was a perfect finishing touch. The sentiment is from Made for You…still one of my favorites of the new catalog.
I can’t wait to see your interpretation of the sketch this week. The design team has created some lovely cards and I know you will be so inspired!
I am back on reserve with United today but will be officially on a bit of a break after Friday. I have some fun new things coming up with the new year and I can’t wait to share them. Make sure you drop in next week to see the news! Until then, I’m so glad you came by today. See you soon!
