Hello, my name is Lynn Put and I’ve been married to my loving and supportive husband Dan for 19 years we have three children two boys and a girl. I’ve always had a passion for various types of art ever since I was young everything from drawing, watercolor, ceramics, needle art and more, I find myself lost without some sort of crafty project in the works. I was introduced to scrapbooking 16 years ago and rubber stamping naturally followed suit shortly thereafter. Other than cardmaking and paper crafting I also enjoy reading, walking and gardening.

You can see more of my work on my blog: The Queen's Scene

And here is Lynn's sweet take on the sketch:

Sketch 129


Good Saturday to each & everyone of you. We hope life is treating you well and if not, just hang in there.
As usual, we have a new sketch up for you this week. Feel free to rotate it and transform it in any way you want to make it yours as long as it's similar! ;)


We're sponsored this week by:
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.

One lucky random participant this week will win the following TWO stamps from Sparkle Creations:






Hi everyone - I'm Leann, a mom of two who lives by the seaside in the UK. I've crafted for as long as I can remember - I was always the child with glitter in her hair and buttons in her pocket, nowadays I'm the grown-up with glitter in her hair and pockets full of buttons! A big thank you to the Card Patterns team for inviting me along to be their guest this week - it's been an honour!

And here is Leann's adorable take on this week's sketch:

Sketch 128

Are you ready for another sketch to jump start your creativity for the week?
One lucky randomly picked participant will win the prize below.

    

Torico 
Hi everyone! My name is Yoshie Nakagaki, aka "Torico". I'm a SAHM living in Japan.

I started card making about two and a half years ago and was hooked on it immediately! I'm not sure what is my style, but I really like to combine a cute image with a simple layout. Speaking about cute images, I love to draw illustrations, too! I work as an illustrator for There She Goes Clear Stamps and sell some digital stamps on my Etsy shop. I hope you have time to visit the TSG and/or my Etsy shop to see my illustrations! 

And here's her gorgeous take on the sketch. That flower is so beautifully colored. Thanks, Torico, for joining us this week on the blog.
