INKspired Sketch Blog Hop 54 - A Surprise!

Hello and welcome to another INKspired blog hop.

You may have landed here 

or hopped across from the delightful Allison and

I always look forward to what she makes

Teneale Williams gives us a sketch each fortnight

that we all make our card too

and here is the sketch below

Now I had to say it is a surprise 
as my sister, Julie has a birthday 
next week and I didn't want her to know yet....
She loves frogs so the frog from the hostess set
Love You Lots was the one to use!

 I used Mint Macaron as the base card and a strip of So saffron that had the stripes from Playful Backgrounds
stamped in Versamark over it.
I then stamped the fern from 
Butterfly Basics in Mint Macaron and stamped 
off a few times to get the variation I wanted.
The Birthday stamp came from Birthday Blooms(love this set).

I then stamped the frog over the top in Mint Macaron
and had him peaking out as well from the
side and from the bottom.

A very simple but cute card (if you love frogs).

Thank you for stopping by.

Do take the time to hop around and

see all the cards

Now it is onto Barb and I love what she

makes each time!

INKspired Sketch Blog Hop 38 -

Hello and welcome to our sunday night blog hop.

You may have hopped across from

the delightful Allison.Can't wait to see what she has made this

fortnight.

Grab a cuppa or something stronger, sit awhile and enjoy the hop with us.

Now here is the sketch that Teneale has given us this fortnight

Used the gorgeous Sweet Sugarplum cardstock and 

made a shaker card.

 Brights Sequin Assortment went inside and the wonderful Foam Adhesive strips kept them inside. 
Used the Swirly Scribbles Thinlits to create the opening and also cut a small swirl for the edge.
Love the new Very Vanilla Lace trim that went across the card.

Used the Happiest of Birthdays to You stamp from the
 Birthday Blooms stampset.
I wasn't happy that you would see the words inside the shaker 
so stamped them again
but still undecided on whether
that worked...

Thank you for stopping bye

Now it is onto Barbara

to see what gorgeous card she has made this fortnight......
