Technique Tuesday

This week is Valentine's Day, and I know many of you are needing to produce some amazing handmade Valentines for the ones you love.....it doesn't have to be stressful! It can be quick and easy by following this super fast Card Sketch. Just dig through your paper scraps and throw together a quick card that will impress anyone on your Valentine List!!


I created this card in just a few minutes using only scraps of paper & ribbon. I added a pop-dot under the heart to add dimension.

Here's Ronda's take on this sketch:

Here is Cheryl's vertical card version of the sketch:

And to prove just how simple & fun following a card sketch can be....here's my 9 year old, Ally's version:

How cool is that?!! It doesn't even have to be a Valentine's Day card. Ally chose to use a flower instead of a heart.
So did Brandi! Here's her "Shabby Chic" take on the sketch:

Her card would be perfect for any occasion!
With cards this quick & easy....who needs Hallmark!!! ;)

Wanna earn a few Friendz Pointz this week? Complete a card using this sketch and I'll give you 5 FRIENDZ POINTZ!!! Just e-mail a photo of your card to us at scrapfriendzy@windstream.net and put "card sketch" in the subject.
Have a super scrappy Tuesday!
