On The Farm

Hi and welcome to our new sketch from the team at Freshly Made Sketches where our hostess this week is Narelle Farrugia.




I had just received this die set by Honey Bee Stamps and thought it would work well for the sketch, so I set about putting all the elements together, using a combination of coloured cardstock for the larger pieces and Copics on white cardstock for the smaller pieces.  

Once I had everything assembled, I die-cut some circles from white cardstock and also patterned paper.  On the green patterned paper, I die-cut with a snow drift die to mimic grass.  I then layered everything onto the circles.




The sentiment was a hot-foiled sentiment I had already made.  I didn't add any embellishments as I envisage this as being suitable for a masculine birthday card.




Thanks so much for visiting.  I hope you'll check out all the fabulous cards made by the rest of the design team.

Products used:

Cardstock:  Whip Cream, Cranberry Cocktail, Jelly Bean Green, Steel Gray, Cement Gray (MFT), Lemon Tart (PTI), white, Spiffier Speckles (Lawn Fawn)
Dies:  On the Farm (Honey Bee Stamps), Circle Infinity Dies (Hero Arts), Snow Drifts (MFT), Hexi-Gem Sentiments Hot Foil (Spellbinders)
Accessories:  Copics

Cheers
Karren
