Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge 76


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 SSSC76 if you plan to post your card in an online gallery.

In the spirit of American Independence day, I made a patriotic card using the 4th of July a la carte stamps from Taylored Expressions.  Love these swirly stars!  I added a couple star eyelets - wow, when was the last time I used eyelets??  I made the star using a Silhouette template (yep, a little addicted to that new toy at the moment).  I'm keeping this one short and sweet because I'm exhausted!  Happy 4th to everyone in the States - enjoy your day!

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