17 Mar

Hello lovely Crafty friends,

Sketch challenges are one of the easiest ways to create beautiful cards without overthinking the design. They give you a clear layout to follow, making the whole process simple and enjoyable!

For this card, I used the Delicate Dreams Suite and followed the #TGIFC598 sketch to bring everything together.

COLOUR PALETTE

Gray Granite
Secret Sea
Misty Moonlight
Crumb Cake
Old Olive

Hello lovely crafty friends, It’s time for anothe Hello lovely crafty friends,

It’s time for another Hop Abroad Insta Hop! 
This month our theme is Fall / Thank You Cards, and for my card I wanted to play with warm colours, lots of layers and a little bit of texture.
I really enjoy making cards like this, where you can keep looking and notice all the little details. I added the embossed background, foliage, ribbon and a few embellishments to give the card some dimension.

For my project, I decided to create an Autumn-insp For my project, I decided to create an Autumn-inspired card with a vintage feel. I wanted the card to have those warm, gentle colours that remind me of Autumn, while keeping the overall design soft and elegant.
I also added some delicate flowers to the design. I love how flowers can bring a little softness to a vintage-style card, and they worked beautifully with the Autumn colours.
I had so much fun putting all the little details together — choosing the colours, layering the elements and adding those finishing touches that make a card feel special.
