Sketch 159

Here's a gorgeous little sketch for you to have fun with this week- lots of options to go simple or add layers!



Designed2Delight digital stamps are whimsical and FUN images hand-drawn by Faith Skrdla. Faith’s love of cardmaking and technology inspired her to venture into the world of illustrating digital stamps in November 2009. Each digi is created with the cardmaker in mind, and is a high-quality, high-resolution image you will use again and again. D2D offers a wide range of images—truly something for everyone. If you prefer "real" stamps, you can find Faith's artwork in rubber exclusively for Whipper Snapper Designs.

Designed2Delight is offering THREE $5 gift certificates this week for three lucky random participants!!!


Liliana Inguanti-Garcia: Crazy About Magnolias
Hi, I am Liliana Inguanti-Garcia and I am so honored to be a guest designer for Card Patterns for this week. I live in Miami, Florida and I am lucky enough to be a stay at home mom of three daughters and three cats and to turn my hobby into a career.

I have been crafting as long as I can remember, but I got hooked into cardmaking when I attended my first stamp workshop four years ago. Since then I became addicted to patterned paper, ribbons, buttons, dies, and stamps.

I enjoy participating in challenges, which keep me creating new designs all the time. I look forward to seeing your creations and I hope you enjoy creating your cards as much as I do!

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

Sketch 157

Michelle has another fabulous sketch for you all this week- we hope you enjoy it! This is perfect for featuring a large image or collection of images, or even for a favorite type of paper.



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.

The randomly picked winner this week will receive 2 stamps from Sparkle Creations: Suitcase Ruby & Traveling Josh!
