Sketch challenges are definitely one of my favorites and this week we have a really fun sketch at TGIF Challenges. If you’ve never played along before, try making a card following the sketch below. You can use my card and the cards of the other designers as inspiration.
As we navigate the flurry of events that come with the end of our daughter’s senior year, I can’t help but feel overwhelmed and busy. Along with all the graduation open house invitations, I have a long list of things to do. One of them being creating a stack of cards for this special occasion. Thankfully, I discovered the perfect materials to make this process quick and effortless.
Helpful Cardmaking Tips with Mix & Match Ephemera
I was able to craft today’s card effortlessly thanks to the innovative Textured Stripes Mix & Match Cards & Envelopes, the versatile Good Times Mix & Match Ephemera Pack, and the all-inclusive Greetings for All Mix & Match Ephemera Pack. These new ephemera packs come with adhesive-backed die cuts, making card assembly a breeze. I simply cut a frame from Basic White cardstock, added my chosen die cuts, and elevated the overall design by popping up the greeting with Dimensionals.
No longer do I have to spend hours on end trying to perfect every detail of my cards. With these new ephemera packs, I can create stunning cards in just minutes. So, as I navigate these busy times, I am grateful for the tools that have made my life as a card maker much more manageable.
