I needed to restock my birthday card stash, so tonight I challenged myself to combine this week's Freshly Made Sketch …
with the Two Patterned Paper Challenge at Seize the Birthday.
And for a twist, I wanted to use at least one Eyelet Outlet Brad.
The first one combined two papers from Carta Bella's The Great Outdoors together with layered Tim Holtz Alterations die cut sentiment. The Jumping Bass Brad was the perfect accent.
The second card is vertical using two papers from Studio Calico's Here & There Collection together with an Eyelet Outlet Bicycle Brad … Success!




What wonderful cards!! You totally ROCKED these brads!! I want to do this sketch but not sure I will have time. I should get off the internet and craft instead!!
What a great set of cards! Love the background papers you’ve used! Thanks for joining us this week at Freshly Made Sketches!
Such fun cards!! LOVE the papers. The fish with the wicker basket on the bottom is perfect! And the brads on both just pop. Thank you for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches.
Two fun cards. Love the papers and the brads go perfect with them. Thanks for sharing with us at Seize the Birthday.
