Happy Fall & welcome to October’s “New at SU” blog hop! We are a group of Stampin’ Up! demonstrators from around the world who are full of creative paper crafting ideas to share with you and get you crafting! Today we are all using the inspiration of a card sketch!
I always love a good sketch challenge. They give me a starting place and help me to organize things in my brain. The great thing about a sketch is that it’s a starting point. You can take the things you want to use from it and leave the rest behind.
For my card this month, I chose to use the Garden Walk DSP and the Modern Garden bundle from the S-D mini catalog. I love this suite. The paper is so pretty and fun to play with.
I don’t have a lot of photos to share today, however I do have measurements
