We're back on track with another new sketch and Sketch Artist!  I had a lot of fun pouring through all of the wonderful cards using last weeks sketch.   There was plenty of pink for breast cancer awareness month and Halloween treats to be had!  This weeks featured Sketch Artist is no exception.  Please join me in congratulating.....

HELEN

 
I absolutely love everything about this card.  The colors are fantastic and perfect for this time of year.  Her coloring is flawless.  I literally got lost in the beauty of this baby, that I forgot about the sketch!  Seriously, this card just makes me happy!  There's plenty more where this came from too.  Be sure to head on over to Helen's blog, Helen's Craft Haven to check out her work.

CONGRATULATIONS Helen!!!

Now on to this weeks sketch.  Hang on to your hats.... I even played along! 

Here's my take on this week's sketch.  My card features the wicked and oh so adorable Moka Tabitha.  I used a combination of Echo Park papers for my card.  The orange dots are actually from EP's Country Drive collection and the rest is from Apothecary Emporium.  I had also played with some pumpkin Smooch I've had for awhile.  I used it on the broom.  You may need to click on the image to make it larger to see it better.

 

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. 11/2 to play along.   When uploading to SCS and PCP or or your blog please use keyword ESS152 for the challenge.

Have a wonderful day!!!
