Sketch For You To Try…

March 14, 2009, by {Jen}

Happy Saturday! I’m having fun a great time here in San Diego with Ellie and my in-laws. So far we have been hanging out, to the zoo, birthday present shopping and to the park. Lots of fun! I also made it over to Stamp Addict and managed to pick up a few stamps to bring home. Between here and NYC last weekend, I have lot of new rubbah to play with…YAY!

Of course I have another SKETCH FOR YOU TO TRY
sfytt_031409

I made this the day before I left and now realize that I completely left out a panel…OOPS! Let’s just pretend that there is a kraft or white panel behind the oval. I’m pretty sure that I would use kraft, but I know that I would check to see what white looked like. Both the image and sentiment for my card are from Stamping Bella.

Jenn, this month’s Designer of the Month, did this cutie patootie card…

    NICE new sketch, Jen - and your card is CuTE with that birdie scene… really like how you framed your sentiment, with the scroll and the brads; nice touch!

    Thanks for the great sketch!

    I ended up missing the extra panel as well, but due to a design choice (not wanting to cover up the paper underneath!). I’ll give the sketch a try again tomorrow :)

    Here is mine. I realized after I did it, that I didn’t notice the color tones on the sketch, oh well, taking care of my little dd with an ear infection, so a bit sleep deprived. I like this sketch. Thanks for the challenge.
