Wow, where did the week go??!! Back to Wednesday and another new challenge from Freshly Made Sketches. This week, our sketch hostess is the incredible Karren Johnson and I love what she gave us to work with this week!
I pulled out my Drummer Boy set from WPlus9 again and played with a different set of colors. I tried to pare down the colors into gray and red to help keep this clean. I used my Copic Markers to color the drummer boy and his little friend. I was going to grab a sheep again but my oldest told me that the poor donkey needed some love. Kind of cracked me up and who was I to argue?! I used the coordinating dies to cut the boy and his friend. Then I used my 2-1/2″ Circle Punch to pop out the partial circle from Thick Whisper White card stock. I added Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper behind it (wish you could see it in person….so much prettier!). I added some Silver Thread and used a sentiment from the same stamp set to finish the sketch.
I think that you will have such fun with this sketch! So many ways to go with it!! The team certainly used it creatively and I know you’ll be in awe, as always.
Back on Friday with a fun card using some coloring I did last week. Until then, thanks for stopping in!!

First it was the snowflakes. Now it’s the drummer boy. You are such an enabler! I love how you’ve colored this, and I love the sparkly circle background. Beautiful card, Jennifer!
This looks amazing in red and grey! I am so loving what you are doing with this set, Jennifer!

Another fabulously creative card, Jennifer! Your coloring is impeccable, and I especially love the way you did the cutout circle with the sparkly paper behind it. Great details.
This card is just the sweetest ever! I love that little drummer boy and his cute little donkey! Great colouring! Beautiful card!
I love the pop of red on this little guy. And good call from your oldest son about the donkey. He goes perfectly with this!
This little guy makes me smile Jennifer – he works perfectly with the donkey. What a wonderful combination for Christmas!
Oh what a wonderful idea! Loving that little drummer boy stamp…and that silver thread! How do you make it look so effortless? Thanks for the inspiration! 🙂
He is truly charming! Love your simple color scheme. You definitely do well with your nests of thread!!
