SSD Sketch Tuesday #47

Good morning!  I hope you all have had a wonderful weekend and start to your week.  I'm back with another fun and fabulous Sketch Tuesday from Skipping Stones Design and this week the team is working with Sweet Sunday Sketch #73.

For my card today I'm using Always Here along with the new set Grunge.  I started by making my own patterned paper by stamping the background stamp from Grunge over the vanilla cardstock circle.  I stamped the sentiment from Always Here right over the top of it and added a paper pieced butterfly.

You can see what the rest of the team has created over at Skipping Stones Design and I do hope you'll join us in this week's Sketch Tuesday!

Have a wonderful day!
Karen

  7. Love your take on the sketch-hard to believe that background on the circle came from Grunge! It's so sweet and feminine in that pale blue! And your butterfly is gorgeous!
