Welcome to a new challenge at As You See It! We're back to the start of our challenge rotation with a sketch and it was my pleasure to provide this one for the team. I don't know quite what I was thinking, given that normally I'm a clean stamper who like lots of open space. But there we have it - it's good to get out of the comfort zone sometimes!
I was lucky enough to receive my box of pre-order products from the January 2026 Mini Catalogue in time to play with some of them for this challenge.
I opened up the
Simply Beautiful bundle and the
Lovely & Beautiful Specialty DSP for this sketch - mainly because I wanted to see what the flower-making dies could do! These products will be available to everyone from early January.
The flower making dies in the bundle are just wonderful! I've used three different sizes to create this bloom and cut the stamens from gold foil. The leaves are Old Olive but I've sponged ink on the solid layer to give more variation in colour. The great thing is that there are more petal sizes, stamen and leaf options - as well as the dies that cut the stamped images from the set. Lots of potential here, I think.
The sentiments in the set lend themselves to weddings and engagements but it does also include the ever-useful 'thinking of you' which I almost used for this card. And of course, with such gorgeous florals and pretty DSP colours, any sentiment could be imported.
What will you do with this sketch?
