Today I thought I'd play around with a sketch from this year's Stampin' Up!s Sept - Dec Mini Catalog. They have several sketches on page 14 of that catalog, and I've chosen to play with the one you see above. I've made a variety of cards - some simple - some less so, but all were designed to demonstrate something about ways to use a sketch.
All papers and cardstock used were from Stampin' Up!, but some are discontinued designs that I need to use up. Most of these were made using paper from the discontinued pack called Regal Winter. If the patterned paper is from a different paper pack, I'll point that out in the description. I invite you to do your own experimenting with whatever paper you have on hand!
Also assume all stamps/dies/etc that were used were from Stampin' Up! unless I say differently. Note that some of the embellishments I used - sequins, etc - have been discontinued (I need to use them up), but there's always something similar you can find here.
Inks used include: Cherry Cobbler, Pretty Peacock, Shaded Spruce, (or you can get all 3 colors as a part of the Regals Stamp Pad Bundle) and VersaMark. The pineapple card also used Pecan Pie and Crumb Cake.
Cardstock used includes: Pebbled Path (discontinued - try Gray Granite), Cherry Cobbler, Pretty Peacock, Basic White, and Basic White Thick.
Most circles created with one of the following Stampin' Up! punches: 1 3/4" punch, 2" punch, 2 3/8" punch. I occasionally also used a couple of scalloped punches I had in my stash.
Below is a look at the 11 cards I made as variations on this sketch.
