Happy Sunday!
This week, I am super excited to be hosting our monthly Sketch Challenge.
If you have ever visited me before, you probably know these two things: I LOVE Sketch Challenges and lots of layers on my cards! I hope you enjoy my sketch this week and take it for a spin yourself.
*I’ve listed all of the measurements and details for my card below and there is a full supply list at the very end of this post.
For my card, I decided to use the Flowering Cactus Product Medley because I finally inked it up this past week and can’t seem to stop using it! It was perfect to create a birthday card for a sweet friend.
Color Combo:
A Product Medley is an easy way to order a coordinating product suite all together with one product number. I love that everything in the suite comes boxed together and with the addition of some cardstock, ink and a couple of other tools / embellishments, you can create lots of pretty projects! This kit will be available *while supplies last* through May 3rd, 2021.
The Flowering Cactus Product Medley includes these exclusive products:
- 15-piece Flowering Cactus Photopolymer Stamp Set
- 48 sheets of 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper: 8 each of 6 double-sided designs
- Die-cut felt sheets: 4 each of 2 colors
- Linen thread combo pack: 10 yards each in natural and Calypso Coral colors
- 10-piece Flowering Cactus Dies (use with Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine; compatible with the Mini Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine)
There is also a refill kit available with more of the consumable items (DSP, linen thread and felt flowers) and you can find more information on that by clicking HERE.

Finally a peek inside the card! I added in another strip of that pretty patterned paper, a birthday sentiment and a stamped cactus to "keep the party going” from the front of the card. I really love how this card came together and I hope you do as well.
