This time around I went with a  summery roller coaster theme.  Being on the FMS team has been a wonderful ride!  Hope you come along this week!

I love the lake scenes you can build from this Hero Arts set!  Hope you join us at Fusion!                                               Stamps/Ink/Paper from Hero Arts July 2019 Kit        • View comments • Track comments •   Celebrating #400! FMS/1/100 Freshly Made Sketches is celebrating 400 Sketches this month and we are going retro a bit for the month of August.  This card is based on our very first sketch - which we also used for #100.  It is fun to look back at previous designs. I followed the #1 Sketch exactly for a Back to School card.  For #100 I used two coffee cups on an anniversary card. And the third time around I definitely loosened things up using clouds and a plane as sketch elements. Jen Mitchell and I have been on the team since Lesley Croghan developed it with Jen Timko joining just a few sketches later.  The two Jens are the backbone of this team and do all of the behind the scenes heavy lifting!  Those three very talented ladies are responsible for this challenge taking off ...... and keep it flying high!   I hope you join us as we celebrate this month.....and there just may be some prizes popping up before the month is over!                                                             Stamp Set: Bon Voyage (Lawn Fawn) Paper: Whisper White, Follow Your Art DSP Ink: Copics, Memento Black        • View comments • Track comments •   Retail Therapy We can all use a little retail therapy now and then.  This sentiment is perfect to use when enclosing a gift card!  Emma is vacationing in Cape Cod this week with her cousins so naturally the Big Guy had to send spending money to the kids for their own "retail therapy."  Emma made three cards for her cousins and the Big Guy added $$$ and wrapped them up............this was the final result..... Sometimes you just have to go with the flow........ I used the sketch from Fab Friday for my design. Stamp Set: City Streets by Sunny Studio Paper: Seaside Spray, Whisper White, Retired DSP from SU!

Use three of any shape you'd like for Jen Brum's sweet sketch this week at Freshly Made Sketches!
