Sketch For You To Try With More Tarts…

Posted by Jen | Bella, MFT, blog tarts, cards, challenges | Saturday, January 10, 2009

Want a chance win a bunch {and I mean a bunch} of stamping goodies totaling over $450 in value?. See THIS post for all the deets. HERE is the official entry post.

It’s Saturday, and you know what that means…another SKETCH FOR YOU TO TRY! To make it even a little sweeter this week, I have more goodies to give away {these are a secret, tho}. So, this is what you wanna do…link your SFYTT card on this post to be entered in this extra blog tart giveaway. Then, put your card in the mail to Julie {see that link up there about all deets for the major giveaway} and then come back and post on the official entry post {that link is up at the top of this post, too}. ETA: Winner for the SFYTT blog tart will be announced next Saturday.

Well, let’s get to it! For this sketch, feel free to use whatever embellishments you want for the stars and the circles. I can’t wait to see everyone’s creativity!!

Here’s my sample using a Bella that needed some love. I am totally diggin’ this color combo, too! What do you think? BTW…did you see the new stuff over at Stamping Bella? O-M-G!…those bugs!!…

    Haven’t commented yet so I thought I’d say your blog looks very clean, which is good. I have a feeling I am missing something tho, so when I go visit my paernts again I’ll get the full effect. I realy like the fonts tho. Makes it purty.
    Anyway, here’s my card for your sketch, working on cards to send for Julie. Thanks!
