BYSHC #64 ~ Santa

Hi friends! I’m sharing my second card for the BYSHC #64 Sketch Challenge. This time, I used a mix of scraps for the sketch! Create a card inspired by the sketch for a chance to win a prize from Digi Doodle Studios.

I followed the measurements from the sketch and cut patterned papers from the Recollections Say Freeze paper pad. I adhered the pieces onto a black cardstock panel measuring 5″ x 3-3/4″.

Next, I stamped, Copic colored, and fussy cut the Santa from Newton’s Nook Designs Dear Santa. I stamped the sentiment and adhered Santa to the card front. Finally, I mounted the entire panel onto an A2 card base.

Here’s a look at the sketch. I hope you’ll join us! Upload your card in the BYSHC Facebook Group for a chance to win.

Thank you for dropping by! I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!

BYSHC #64 ~ Aurora

Hello everyone! I’m sharing my first card for BYSHC #64 sketch challenge. It’s a simple sketch! Make a card inspired by the sketch for a chance to win a prize from Digi Doodle Studios.

I started by cutting a white panel to 5″ x 3-3/4″. I masked the edges and the center using Gina K Designs Masking Magic, which I trimmed to 0.25″ strips.

I began with the top half of the panel: I masked off the bottom and then masked the hills before ink-blending the night sky. For the sky, I used Gina K Designs Emerald Coast, Blue Raspberry, Blue Denim, and In the Navy inks. To finish this section, I splattered Picket Fence Studios Opaque White Paper Splatter to create a starry effect.

Next, I repeated the same process for the bottom half of the panel. Then, using the leftover ink on my Emerald Coast blending brush, I gently blended the edges of the hills to help define the scenery from the border.

Next, I stamped, ink-blended, and fussy cut images from the Lawn Fawn Winter Skies stamp set. For the scarf, I stamped the image onto Lawn Fawn Winter Baby Blanket patterned paper, fussy cut it, and adhered it to my stamped image. Then I glued all the critters in my scene.

For the rest of the card, I used additional images and a sentiment from Winter Skies. I cut a navy cardstock panel to 5-1/8″ x 3-7/8″ to layer behind my white panel. Finally, I adhered everything to an A2 card base.
