Ready for the first of this year’s weekly card sketch challenges?
Not sure what this Card Sketch Challenge is all about? Have a read of this blog post to find out more!
In the meantime, this is the card that I made using this week’s layout.

Also, here is a quick video of me waffling on while I put together my take on this week’s challenge. Please do have a watch when you can.
Download The Free Card Sketch Here
The format for this year’s sketches is a little different to last year in that it is supplied as PDF sheet that you can download and print or store on your smart device. The sheet will contain both the sketch and the card that I created, as a little extra inspiration.
A UKA4 and US Letter sized option is available, just click the download link below according to your preferences/needs.
Share Your Creations!
I would love to see what you make using these card sketch challenge layouts so when you have made your masterpiece, head over to Facebook, join Gentleman Crafter’s Card Sketch Challenge group and post your results with a friendly and supportive bunch of like minded crafters – it’s all part of the fun!
Ok, that’s this post all wrapped up.
Thank you for stopping by, I hope to see you again soon.
Best wishes,
John.
