Saturday’s Sketch For You To Try…

Posted by Jen | cards, challenges | Saturday, December 22, 2007

Howdy folks!! Time for another SKETCH FOR YOU TO TRY!! I came up with this one when Susan and Shannan were over last weekend. I had every intention of posting my sample earlier in the week and coming up with something a little more winter-y or Christmas-y, but that just didn’t happen! I hope that you are enjoying the final countdown until Christmas day. We are in sunny San Diego at Tony’s grandparents house. I even brought along some crafty goodness to share with the family. I’ll be sure to post some pics when I get back into town and am regularly posting again (soon, real soon!!).

Here is my sample. Be sure to check out what Carole, and Shannan came up with! :)
Also, feel free to flip the ribbon and round panel as needed for your main image. If you are uploading to SCS, please use the keyword SFYTT, so we can see them all at once. And, of course, link it here! :)

Here’s the sketch…

    Oh wow - so cute!!!!!! Great colors. I’m digging that image and especially the background (I assume it’s a stamp). Merry Christmas!!

    What a great sketch challenge and CUTE card! I decided to give the sketch a try but flipped the sketch upside down due to my main image and the size of my card. Thanks so much!
