Using a Sketch

Good morning!

Last night I made a fairly quick card using a sketch I found on the CAS(E) this Sketch blog. Here's the lovely sketch, then my card. I must admit, I'm not sure I allowed enough "white space" on this card for it to be considered CAS...but thanks for the inspiration anyway!

Stamps- "Fern Frond" by Posh Impressions, "Fern" by Prairie Peddler, "Leaf" & "Get Well Soon" by Stampin Up, "Lace Frame" by Hero Arts, "Fleur de Lis" by JustRite

Guest Designer for Inkspirational Challenges!

Hello, Friends!

Today I'm showing you a card I made for one of my favorite challenges: Inkspirational!

And it really is very inspirational for me...great ideas and designs, challenging themes and color suggestions! I've joined the challenge several times now and had fun with each one...but today is even more special...they asked me to be a guest designer for the new challenge that starts today! I'm so honored!

They asked me to case one of the cards made by one of their fabulous DT members, Sandie (yes, even spelled the same as my name!) and here is the card I chose:

Very pretty, don't you think?

And here is how I "cased" it:

*A Bridal Shower Card*

My youngest son is getting married in May and I got to go to my future daughter-in-law's first shower recently...this was the card I gave with her gift. It doesn't show up very well, but there is lots of sparkley Stickles on the LOVE LOVE, and the sequins are pearly irridescent.

So what do you think...did I case it properly?

On the inside I did not add the Stickles...and purposely left plenty of room to sign the card with a personal note added.
