Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge 72


Good morning - It's time for another Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge! Here is the deal: make a card with this layout and use the InLinkz button down at the very end of this post to enter your card. The links will close on Friday at 10 PM (Mountain Time), and I'll randomly select one card to feature on my blog on Saturday. So, as long as your card is linked by 10 PM Friday, your card will be in the drawing. Be sure to link directly to the blog post or gallery image which features your card. You may post a picture of the sketch on your blog, but please save the image to your computer first. Use the keyword SSSC72 if you plan to post your card in an online gallery.

I didn't think I was going to have a sketch sample for you guys today!  I'm getting out of Dodge for the night to celebrate my 9th anniversary and I've been trying to get everything in order for my BIL who is watching all 3 of my kiddos plus he'll have his 2 for a whole day and night!  Brave man!!  Anyway, I'm glad I found some time to sit down and, uh, stamp, because I love this card!  Is that braggy?  Hmm, sorry if it is, but you know how it is when you create a card that turns out WAY better in real life than you pictured in your head - you just want to scream from the rooftops.  Of course, if I did that at my house, my neighbors would definitely think I had jumped off the deep end, but you all - you understand, so I'm shouting!   hahaha!

I wanted to make something quick, so I grabbed the May Key Ingredients subscription kit from Taylored Expressions and went to town!  Done!  I just stamped the "dream" from Discover Your Wings and that's it.  The rest are adorable rub-ons and I LURVE them!  The only extra embellishment I added was the Yellow Pearls, those aren't included in the kit.  Wow, I must have had too much sugar before typing this - so sorry.  I know, you can roll your eyes and groan at my humor :D

The Sweet Sunday Stampers also have amazing sketch samples to show you today, so stop on by to see:
Thanks for taking on the challenge this week!
