Samantha’s Gleeful Gardens Inspiration

Our Card Sketch challenge gallery is filling up with super creative projects! So many great ideas for this sketch! The challenge will be open until Sunday, February 28 at 11:59PM ET. We are looking forward to seeing how the sketch inspires you!



Now, Samantha has a gorgeous Gleeful Gardens card to share with you!

I stamped the images from Gleeful Gardens, Oh Gnome! and Swan Soirée and then colored them in with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers! Once they were dry, I fussy cut them out!

I stuck with the warm colors for this card! I used various shades of pinks and reds, oranges and yellows! I decided to color the grass stalks in a warm yellow/brown to keep the feeling! I love that twist – 10 times out of 10 I usually just color it green!

I used some vellum squares to anchor the mini-scenes before I adhered them to the sketch! The sentiment was stamped below, and I used a white gel pen to color in the heart!

I popped up one mushroom per square (and the snail!) and then sprinkled some sparkling clear sequins to add some shine!

Thanks so much for sharing this delightful card with us, Samantha! It’s adorable!

Supplies:

Happy crafting, friends! Have a wonderful day!

Our Design Team loves to Create A Scene on a card!

Jessica starts us off with a little slice of paradise! Her On the Beach scene includes an interactive slider for the Smooth Sailing sailboat! I love how she added so much great detail to the die cut palm trees!

Who wouldn’t be hoppy to receive a birthday card this adorable! Christy combined Toadally Awesome and Gleeful Gardens with Grassy Border and Meadow Borders!

Joyce‘s sunny scene features lots of our ocean-themed sets including You Are Sublime, Keep on Swimming, Fintastic Friends, Get Well Before ‘n Afters and Ahoy Matey! She used Stitched Wave Borders and Simple Stitched Hillside Borders as scene builders!

I love how Karin used a Stitched Rectangle and an Outside In Stitched Circle to create a fun frame for her Toadally Awesome scene!

Samantha used layers of beautiful color to set the stage for her scene in which Swan Soirée and Rub-A-Dub-Dub are combined!

Franci‘s fantastic scene takes us to Australia with a gorgeous sunset! She used all the fun critters and trees from Critters Down Under!

Caly used Cattails Border to create a silhouette horizon for this beautiful bayou scene! She filled the scene with critters from Toadally Awesome and Swan Soirée!

Samantha‘s pretty pastel scene shows us a day at the amusement park! She paired the cute Coaster Critters images with the scene building Stitched Hillside Backdrop: Landscape!

Jenn‘s fantastic card is a slice of life from her happy place! Her slimline scene shows sun and surf, lobsters and jellyfish in the water and crabs and sand castles on the beach! She combined lots of sets including Life is Good, You Are Sublime, On the Beach, So Jelly, and Smitty’s ABCs!

We will share Design Team inspiration for you over the next 2 weeks and we’ll announce our Featured Fawnatics for Challenge 77 and random winner for tomorrow!
