Making handmade cards with a sketch is a fun and creative way to express yourself! You start with a simple drawing, and then add color, texture, and little details to transform it into something uniquely yours. As a result, each card becomes a one-of-a-kind piece that’s perfect for any occasion.
Here’s the sketch I used for the card I’m sharing today. It features a few layers, five randomly placed circles, and a sentiment tag in the center. From there, I took it to the next level with color, texture, and some fun embellishments to bring the design to life.
Here is the Valentine card I made using the sketch as a blueprint.
You’ll notice I added color, texture, and even sprinkled a few embellishments to bring the drawing to life. Instead of circles, I die-cut five heart shapes from the top layer of the card and layered it over several pieces of patterned paper. Although I used the sketch to create a Valentine card, the beauty of sketches is that you can change it up to suit any occasion.
So, whether you’re making a Valentine’s card or something for another special moment, a sketch is a great starting point to spark your creativity. Have fun with it and make it your own! Happy crafting!
