Welcome to this month’s Stamptastic Friends Blog Hop.

This Month’s Theme is a Card Sketch.

As this card sketch is nice and simple I wanted to create a nice and simple card using punches and a sentiment. This card uses 2 punches, a simple sentiment, some embellishments and 3 different coloured card stock. This means that any one should be able to make it.

How to make my nice and simple card using punches

First I cut a A5 portrait card base using Basic White Thick card stock. I then cut a mat layer using Misty Moonlight card stock and a smaller mat layer using Basic White card stock and stuck them to the card base.

Next I punched out a circle using the 2 5/8″ circle die and Daffodil Delight card stock. This I stuck to the card front so it looks like a sun. I then punched out the boat twice using the Sailboat Builder punch. Once using Misty Moonlight card stock and another using Basic White card stock. I then added the Misty Moonlight boat base and mast to the card front followed by the two Basic White sails.

Next I added a ‘Happy Birthday’ sentiment from the Go To Greetings stamp set. To finish off the card I added 3 of the smaller Daffodil Delight gems from the Glossy Dots Assortment.

I hope you have enjoyed seeing my interpretation of the card sketch. Card sketches are good if you are suffering from no mojo or need an idea for a card. Why not have a go at making a nice and simple card using this card sketch. Remember I would love to see your creations.

Until next time, keep stampin ‘n crafting,
