I designed a fairly simple sketch that you can play around with and add lots of different embellishments in the corner areas if you like! I hope you can join in with us this week!!! Be sure to check out the wonderful samples from our fabulous Sassy Sketchers!!! I also have to extend a BIG thank you to Jacqueline for creating my sketch on her computer for me. I don't have the ability to do that, so if it weren't for her, you would be seeing my sketch scratched out on a bit of paper!!! THANKS, Jacqueline!!!

Friday Sketchers Sketch number 12 sponsored by Sarah's Cards Ltd

Welcome to Friday Sketchers and sketch number 12. I am Jacqueline and I am proud to represent the Netherlands for this weeks challenge. Thanks to everyone that has taken part so far with our weekly challenges, it is so great to see that so many of you join in!! And I noticed that more people are joining in with cards that aren't "cute", I think it is great to see so many different styles!!! Take a peek at the sketch I created for this week. It is a little bit different, because the image should be cut out, if you see the cards of the DT you know what I mean :-) I agree that we are all busy these days during the Summer with kids off from school and vacation time, so this sketch is not too difficult. Vaccationtime is also the reason why we do not have a card this time from our valued Sassy Sketchers Heidi and Carole .

As most of you know I try every week to leave a comment to all participants, but because of the schoolvacation last week I couldn't make it. And now I am leaving for vacation on the 29th of July, I will not be able to do that for the ones that enter after the 27th. From the 18th of August I will be back as "normal" ;-))

So take a look at our Designers work - everybody came up with something different:-)



This weeks sponsor is Sarah's Cards Ltd. Your on line store for cardmaking, scrapbooking and general craft supplies. They are bringing out every month beautiful kits, for pages, for scrapping and for cardmaking. And they all look fabulous!!

Sarah's Cards is sponsoring The June card kit from the shop. On the picture you see what is in there! I love those bright colors!!


Now for the Sassy Sketcher samples:

Here is the card I, Jacqueline, made for the Netherlands:



This is the card Murmur made for France:
