Sketch Challenge: Bold Greetings

Last night, I hosted a Mystery Stamping event on my Facebook group. If you haven't done Mystery Stamping before, it's a lot of fun! During a Facebook Live, I give participants written and verbal instructions on how to make the card, but I don't show them the card. I also don't tell them a specific stamp set or colors. Everyone's card turns out differently and it is great to see what everyone does. While we are stuck at home, I am planning to do a Mystery Stamping even each Tuesday night. I hope you'll join us!

This week's Mystery Stamping was based on this card sketch. Card sketches are a great way to stretch your stamping muscles! You can follow the sketch exactly or mix it up a bit. The sketch is meant to be inspiration for a card layout. 

As you can see, I followed the sketch closely to create my three cards, just adding some twine and ribbon. 

​Hooray, it's your birthday!
