Here’s a great card sketch that works so well with many different stamp sets. I even used the new Halloween set called Potions and Spells, and I love the way it turned out! I made three very different cards in this week’s video – one more elegant with the Spotlight on Nature Set, one cute one with the Charming Duck Pond set, and one seasonal (Halloween). CASE (Copy And Share Everything) these cards, or use your favorite stamp sets with the sketch for your own creations. I know you’ll be happy with the results!
Here’s the sketch:
The Spotlight on Nature card lends itself to a more elegant card because the images are so realistic.
