Adding interest with Sketch Pens

Hi everyone!  Cathy here with you today and I have a couple of fun baby projects to share with you .  I added a bit of texture and interest to two of the projects using my Silhouette Sketch Pens.  First up, I have Lori’s new Baby Gift Card Holder, so cute and easy with this adorable little pouch for the gift card to pop up!  I add the Diamond Hatch fill on white textured  card stock using a bright pink Silhouette Sketch pen.  This is so easy to do and I love the look.

Simply go to the Sketch section on your Silhouette and  click on the Fill Sketch that you wish, on both projects I used the Diamond Hatch.  All of these fill sketches are fun.  I encourage you to experiment with different ones.  You can easily  add a whole new look to your project.  I also love using the continuous Edge Sketch to my projects, from circles to titles, it’s a fun one!

Here’s the inside of the gift card holder, so easy to put together.

And here’s that adorable little pop up pouch to hold your gift card.  Too cute!

I have another project to share with you using this same technique, this time I used Lori’s Center Step Card.  You can see the layered flower in the background that I used this technique.  These flowers are from Lori’s 3 mix and match flowers set.  I cut one with the patterned paper and added the outline and the second layer I used white textured card stock and the Silhouette Sketch Pen in bright pink.

Here’s a close up of the flower before I added it to my card.  So fun!

My next little project doesn’t have a special technique but it is one of Lori’s new files and it was just too cute not to share with you!

It is the  3 D no glue suitcase!  This little cute box is perfect for a gift card too.  So easy and it holds together securely with no glue.  Gotta love that!

Thank you for joining us today!
