Another Sketch, Another Card

I really do love sketch challenges.  They’re just such an awesome jumping off point to get creative!  This is a fun card I created for my club members tonight.  It’s actually a ‘bonus’ project for them as their normal two projects are all done, ready, and prepped for them.  But these club members have been awesome and I thought I’d give them a little bonus project this month, just because!

Anyway, here’s the sketch from splitcoaststampers:

And here’s my card:

Two Tone Rose

Well, it’s been a while but I finally played in both Kristina’s Color Challenge and the Mojo Monday challenge!  I tell ya, the Mojo sketch was tricky for me.  Once I got the 3 base pieces down I could not for the life of me figure out what to do for the 2 upper layers!  But it finally came together.  I really, really wanted to add another color to get some leaves in there and that is what kept fouling me up.  But I’m happy with the end result – not my best but certainly not my worst! LOL

Sarah’s Card

Sarah shared a card with me that she made for Easter.  Does that butterfly look real or what??  I love it!  Some of you may have this set (Touch of Nature) so here are the details…
Colors Used: Old Olive, So Saffron (CS), Whisper White
The butterfly – Clear embossed with  black craft ink on So Saffron CS, cut out, and then attached with a single glue dot in the middle.

Thank you for sharing Sarah!  I’d love to see what others are creating out there as well!
