February 2026 Card Sketch Challenge

In this week’s Facebook Live I shared all the fabulous cards that were entered in January’s Card Sketch Challenge. All the entries were wonderful and I’m thankful I don’t have to choose my favorite. All names go in a random name generator and one lucky person gets a shopping spree with me. January’s winner is Linda Vanderspool. Next, I shared February 2026 Card Sketch Challenge Template. My card features Mixed Up Patterns Designer Paper, Lovely Arrangement Stamp Set and Swirled Design Bundle to create this beautiful Bubble Bath sending smiles card.

Fabulous Sayings & Days Like This

As we come to the end of January it was time to use this month’s Product of the Month. These cards featuring the Fabulous Sayings & Days Like This Memories & More Card Pack are from January’s Coffee, Cocoa & Cards Class. The Days Like This card pack are used as designer paper on each card. For this class, everyone received half a package of the Memories & More Cards, 3 yards of Garden Green 1/8″ Chevron Ribbon and a package of Dear Dots to embellish the cards.

I used the Beautiful Pattern Embossing Folder for the Pool Party layer. Each layer is matted on Basic Black which helps the colors pop. The butterfly was fussy cut from an extra piece of the designer paper card.

For the second card, I cut one of the 4″ x 6″ cards into two pieces and simply stamped the greeting right on the designer paper piece.

I love the color combination of card #3 — Secret Sea, Calypso Coral and Petal Pink. This time we fussy two butterflies from remaining pieces of the designer paper card. The larger butterfly was not a full butterfly, so the edge is tucked under the designer paper layer.

A fun layout for card #4 showing off two different prints. Again, we fussy cut a small butterfly to add above the greeting.

Card #5 has lots of fun elements and the Garden Green 1/8″ Chevron ribbon.

I love the bright and cheery feel of card #6. Daffodil Delight and Basic Black really pop and make me happy. A Black Journalling Pen was used to outline the butterflies.

The final card is a step card which is so fun to make. Each step is decorated with pieces of the card designer paper and fussy cut butterflies. All of the cards have been embellished with the Dear Dots with coordinating colors.
