Yippee!!! It's my favorite time of the week and hopefully it is yours too. All of the entries for last weeks sketch were fantastic. It literally took me all week to go back through all of them. I hope you all know how much I truly appreciate your continued support of Sketchy Thursday. There are so many blogs out there that host challenges so I am honored to have you play along with mine!
So without further adieu, ladies give it up for this week's featured Sketch Artist.....


Could you not help but smile at this baby? I mean just look at it! HAPPY! HAPPY! HAPPY! And did I mention happy?! Not only are the colors fabulous, but the way she played with the sketch. There's bling!!! While I've never been in a hot air balloon, this is exactly how I'd imagine the ride to be. The sun smiling at me and a pink banner in the sky!!
I have long been a fan of Amy's work and am super excited that she is our Sketch Artist this week! I hope you will visit Amy's blog, Tsuruta Designs - pronounced tsu-ru-ta (sue-roo-ta) - (I grabbed that off her blog. ♥ love it!) and give her some cyber love!!
Amy!!!
We are on to number 84 ladies... which was inspired by a card I did for one of the May releases at All That Scraps. Here you go....
As always I'll choose the most clever, creative, and cute creation from the submissions this week to be the next Sketch Artist. Your design will also be featured on my blog next week!
You have until next Wed. 5/26 to play along. When uploading to SCS and PCP or or your blog please use keyword ESS84 for the challenge.
Don't forget tomorrow is voting day for Taylor's Top Crops. I've just got to win!!
Hugs!!!!!!
