Card Patterns Sketch 17

The term has come to an end today for some of our Design Team members so it's a sad week for me. I have grown to love them all.

They have helped me a lot whether it's a decision to make, a friendly advice or ideas to make Card Patterns better. I value not only their professionalism, time, effort, talent and friendship but I really value their honesty!




Rae is an all around talented crafter. I love how she express herself in different forms of crafting, from card making, to layouts and altered art.
You have to look closely to her projects to appreciate all the little details she added, because that's where you'll see her love of art.




If many of you do not know, not only Sonya have passion for mix media, altered projects, layouts, card & jewellery making, she has a great talent in painting. Have you been to her blog? If not, you're missing out! She has a unique keen eye for details and that's what I love about her work. Sonya is sweet, and the most down to earth person you'll ever meet.



Marie oh sweet Marie! I've always enjoyed Marie's clean style of card making. If you haven't noticed, she makes her cards to perfection! :)
All the details in her cards are always polished, from the way she cuts the paper to the way she knot her ribbons. Did I say she is one great stamper? Marie is committed, open minded person and is filled with great ideas!





If there is someone who is not afraid to speak her mind, it is Ingrid, which is one of her many good traits that I value the most. Her openness is what brought her closer to my heart. Not only she is a talented sophisticated crafter, I consider her a great friend. As many of you know, Ingrid's work has always been beyond expectation.




These amazing ladies have contributed a lot to Card Patterns and have helped me build an amazing site from the ground up! I can't stress enough how I value them and I'll sure miss them all! I'm so proud of you all! And as sad as I am to see these ladies go, I am excited to showcase the new members' talent next week. So don't forget to join us!

Another plain and simple sketch to follow this week! Do a vertical or a horizontal card. Flip them, turn it upside down, stamp or paper pierced a bigger image you have been wanting to use. Father's Day is coming, so it may be something you can do!



This week, we are thrilled to work with our guest designer who is one super talent! Come join us in welcoming.


A little info about Savitri:

"Hi! My name is Savitri Wilder and I got "suckered" into scrapbooking sometimes in 1999 and stamping a year later or so but I didn't get into creating regularly until November of 2007. I live in Missouri with my family, a husband, daughter, two dogs and soon to be baby girl #2 (due June 4th!!!). My family's my inspiration! I work full-time and also teach 1-2 classes/semester online. I work with computers a lot and it's so nice to have a hobby that helps me relax and also produce pretty things. Here's my take on it and I hope you will come and play along too!!!"


We are so lucky to be sponsored once again by Digi Shack. Toni is such a generous lady, not only she has treated the team for 3 weeks in a row, she is giving away again 2 digital stamps of her choice to 1 random winner!



It's about time that we showcase talents from our team and see how they turned, flipped or stayed true with the sketch... along with the other little details.... :)

  1. Michelle, thank you so much for your sweet words. I really enjoyed being on the Card Patterns DT. It was great to be part of this exciting adventure from the very beginning, and it is so great to see what you have achieved in the past 4 months. I am sad to leave, but we will stay in touch. You are a wonderful person and I am glad we met. Good luck with your new DT! Can't wait to see their weekly creations, and of course I will keep participating.

    Hugs,
    Ingrid

  7. I love the sketch this week and I made a boy card whit it. Boycards are not my favorite, because I love to use flowers and ribbon. On this card I used neither one of them!!!
