Good Morning Friends!!!
If this is your first time visiting >>>>> <<<<< And for those of you that are regulars hold on to your hats girls.... not only do I have a new sketch, but I made a card too!!! I do love Thursdays. Not only because it's time to announce a new Sketch Artist, but it's only day away from F*R*I*D*A*Y*!!!
My only complaint, if you want to call it one, is that you guys made choosing a winner this week REALLY, REALLY hard! Oh my heck you guys rocked the sketch with your flowers. Dang! In case you missed any of them, click on the thumbnails of the cards submitted to see them. Be sure to leave them some love too!
Ladies it's my pleasure to announce that this week's featured Sketch Artist is......
CAROL
Need I say more? I have long been a fan of Carol's work. And it was such a treat to have her play along with the sketch. You hear that Carol - you rock girl! Seriously just look at the details. The pattern on the blue paper almost looks exactly like her border punch. Or vice versa! And the embossed side panel where she cleverly used her button TCP Cut Up dies!! I almost wouldn't mind getting a shot from Sprinkle with her cute little pink nurses hat too. Notice I said almost! LOL! Congratulations Carol on being selected this week's featured Sketch Artist. Please be sure to pop on over to see other crafty goodies from Carol on her blog, Scrap Just 4 Fun!
Sketch 97
I made this card over the weekend using the darling Mavis from Stamping Bella. She is a cutie patootie!!! The image is called Mavis builds a sandcastle. Sentiment is from AmyR's Underwater sentiments from All That Scraps. Aside from Mavis being the cutest thing to hit the beach this summer, how about this HAPPY paper? It's from one of my newest favorite companies - Echo Park. I got mine from my last Project Pantry kit from Taylored Expressions - where else? Taylor is always on trend with the latest and greatest!
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. 8/25 to play along. When uploading to SCS and PCP or or your blog please use keyword ESS97 for the challenge.
Thanks for stopping by today!!!
Sooo cute! How'd you do the big scallops around the image? Is that a die?
