The Around the World on Wednesday (AWOW) team and I are hopping today — here on our blogs, and on Instagram. This month’s challenge is a Sketch Challenge, and I chose the brand new Country Woods Suite Collection from the new Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog. Before we get to that, let’s introduce the AWOW –here’s who we are and where we are in the world:
And, here is the sketch we are using today:
The sketch is such a good one, and has so many possibilities. So many, that I had to make two cards! One of the reasons I love this sketch is because to me, it screams “use DSP!” (and if you follow me at all…you know it’s my favorite product). Here are my cards:
The new Country Woods Suite is a double suite — with two bundles and two DSP options. Let’s take a look:
It also comes with so fun accessories too: a pretty Eyelet 3D Embossing folder, ribbon combo pack, and Basic Gray & Smoky Slate Pearls. The style is shabby chic and the colors are soft and rich. Not usually my go-to (which is usually more whimsy and bold images paired with Night of Navy and Brights — there is another Suite that is right up my alley…more on that later…), but as soon as I saw the new catalog, I immediately added it to my wish list because I loved the images and LOVE the DSP.
Let’s take a closer look at my cards:
The Country Woods 12 x 12 DSP and the Country Lace 12 X 12 DSP do all the work!

Roll Call:
Great takes on the sketch Kelly. Love both of them, but I think the birdhouse is my fave by just a smidge! 🙂 xx
Thank you!!
Yes, the sketch does make you want to use DSP! Both cards are delightful, but I absolutely love your birdhouse with the multi-colored wood strips. xx
Thank you!
These are both such wonderful cards! I love your use of the wood grain pattern for the stripes!
Thank you Bree!
It’s nice to see two variations on the sketch with the same suite. By a nose, my fave is the jug of leaves. 🙂
Oh, thank you so much!!
Great cards ! Thank you for sharing !
Thank you!!
