Freshly Caught Up...Again

Hello Stampers!

I was taking a break from HYCCT cards (very few of which I have posted yet!) to complete the most recent Freshly Made Sketches challenges.  I was all caught up n those less than a month ago; I don't want to fall behind again!  My goal of finishing the 2015 FMS challenges is still on track!  But, as I went along, I also incorporated some HYCCT after all!  I made the cards last night, and took pictures after my 2 appointments this morning...here goes!

Here's sketch #208...barely on time to post to the blog link up.  I used summer starfruit for the base, along with some starfruit dsp from the "Soho" pack,  I added quilted early espresso ribbon.  Some "Comfort Cafe" dsp is matted with cajun craze.  The sentiment is from "Best Yet" stamped in cajun on very vanilla.  I used my tag punch so that it fits the "Tag You're It" HYCCT challenge, edged it with my marker and added some bakers twine.  Finally, a couple of cajun craze candy dots finish it off.

FMS #207 is perfect for showing off designer series paper.  I received this paper a couple of years ago in a card kit swap.  I used some of the paper and images for HYCCT cards, but wanted to use the rest up instead of setting it aside again. #UseMyStash!  Unfortunately, I have no idea what the name of the dsp is, but it goes perfectly with this river rock card base.  I also have a bit of bordering blue paper and ink, with the sentiment from "Best Yet" on a scallop circle.  Some non-SU enamel dots finish it off. I made two of these in almost no time.   

And here is FMS #206...I really like the circles.  I used three different SU punches, and the mid-sized circle is popped up with dimensions.  I used river rock again, plus the dsp from that card kit.  The sentiment is from SU's "Whimsical Words" stamped in chocolate chip.  I added some early espresso bakers twine for simple embellishment.  This HYCCT challenge, "I am a Warrior," had us use strong images or phrases to relay a fighting spirit.  I will likely try another card...this card seems too timid!  LOL

Thanks for coming by.  I hope to upload more cards tonight, and post throughout the week.
