Sketch 125

Hope you're enjoying this beautiful summer. Here's a new very simple sketch, something you can whip up in 5 minutes or less!  Can't wait to see what you guys come up with it.

We have an exciting new sponsor lined up for you this week!

Yes...Sparkle is her real name.  She has been crafting since she was a child, but seriously started crafting when she was 16.  Sparkle started as a scrapbooker, though over the years she has turned into a cardmaker.  Brent (Sparkle's husband) and Sparkle opened SparkleCreations Rubber Stamps in July 2010, and they are selling cute and whimsical rubber stamps of little boy and girl images.  Aki, their wonderful artist, has done a great job at making their characters come alive and have their own personalities.  

Just for Card Patterns' participants, Sparkle Creations will be giving away the rubber stamps below to 1 lucky randomly picked winner!

And we're also joined by 2 of Sparkle Creation's DT member:

Amy Crockett

Scrapping Mommy

Getting to know Amy:

Hello, my name is Amy Crockett and I am a stay-at-home mommy to three very active and adorable young children who enjoy crafting right along side me.  I have always had a passion for arts and crafts that was nurtured from a very young age by my grandmother, who was always doing something crafty.  I was introduced into the world of paper crafting about 8 years ago and I have been hooked ever since.  I just love working with sketches and really love the style of the Card Patterns sketches.  I also love to cook and bake (I am always trying out new and exciting recipes), as well as reading, family history research, camping, hiking, and fishing. 

You can see more of my work on my blog: Scrapping Mommy

And here's Amy's beautiful take on the sketch:

Vicky Sheridan: Blush Crafts

"I’m so pleased to have been chosen as Guest Designer this week. I love Card Patterns sketches they just seem to suit my style perfectly.

I've always dabbled in a bit of sewing and knitting since my schooldays. I made the odd pair of curtains and knitted jumper, but only got into card making about three years ago. I got so frustrated with the lack of ‘different’ cards available in the shops I thought I’d have a go at making my own and the rest is history as they say!

I like to experiment with different card base shapes and as well as cards, to create altered items and 3d projects. I’ve just recently become fascinated with ‘upcycling’. I love the idea of making something from almost nothing. I get a lot of my inspiration from home décor and fashion magazines and websites; they’re great places for spotting the latest design and colour trends."
