Alternatives for March Paper Pumpkin

Happy Thursday to all!  How is your week going? I am getting ready to host Gourmet Club this weekend and still have not decided on the main course.  I need to figure this out soon! If you have a great recipe to share leave me a comment.

Today I am sharing two cards that I made with my friend Debbie.  We each have a kit and meet every fourth Friday to make cards from the current month's kit as I shared in late March .  Here is the intial post ICYMI.



The first card we made this month was very similar to a card design in the kit.  We always like to give the designs our personal touch.  Adding layers, embossing, turning the design around are just a few of the changes we like to contemplate.

We contemplated alot as we enjoyed our day together while  laughs and "opps" handicapped our progress. We had such a great time. We are making so many priceless memories to add to our storyline. What a great way to use Paper Pumpkin!









The second card incorporates a few items from our stash to enhance the beauty of the rose design paper.  Capturing the shine in the gold paper was challenging but its the best I could do without drowning out too much of the Fresh Fig color.




Here is the inside of the card.  We liked the card without a sentiment which gives us more flexiblity using the card.

Each card is 5½ x 4¼.
Center panels are 4¼ x 3
Center panels are popped with dimensionals.
BTW March's kit was loaded with dimensionals.

http://freshlymadesketches.blogspot.com/ As the badge alongside clearly articulates,  I do love to play at Freshly Made Sketches.  The designers are awesome and this talented team shares a new card challenge every week.

I am a minimalist when it comes to stamping and handmade cards. So, these sketches really fit well with my style. However if that is not your style don't worry, there are designers who always kick it up a notch to compliment anyone's preference.

If you have never heard of Freshly Made Sketches I encourage you to visit the site today.  There are 300 sketches with loads of card samples to inspire your creativity.  You will not be disappointed!
