Hello and welcome! The bright and colourful card I have to share today was created for my Make It Monday sketch challenge. I’ve used the Stampin’ Up! Reach For The Stars bundle and the fabulous Stargazing Designer Series Paper. The Designer Series Paper is on sale until June 30th for 15% off the catalogue price … so order yours today!

I created the card on the left as my sample card using a pink colour combo. In today’s live Make It Monday video we created the same card in different colours by just choosing a different piece of Designer Series Paper and switching out the cardstock colours!


I have started a new schedule of live videos for you. I will be live three times a week (Monday, Tuesday and Friday) on my Birdsnest Designs Facebook Page and over on my Birdsnest Designs YouTube Channel.
Each Monday is Make It Monday live on Birdsnest Designs Facebook Page and Birdsnest Designs YouTube Channel. Be sure to pop on in at 10:00AM (PDT) to get inspired and craft along with me. If you miss the live video you can always catch the replay when it works with your schedule. During the live tutorial I will be using a creative challenge, either a sketch or colour combination, to base my project off of. This week’s challenge is posted below for you and will also be on my Facebook Page for you to play along with. When you complete your project take a photo and share it in the comments of my post. This will create a fun thread for everyone to take a look at! At the end of the month I will be drawing a prize for one lucky person that participates in the challenges! Anyone is invited to participate, however, prizes can only be mailed within Canada.
Here is this week’s Make It Monday sketch challenge …

Ok .. now that you’ve seen the sketch let’s get into the Reach For The Stars card we made in the live video toady!
