Another Lets Get Sketchy Challenge!

Hello there!

Lets Get Sketchy has posted another lovely sketch challenge and I was excited to play along ... this is the sketch:


And this is my take on the sketch ...


I chose to use 4 photos instead of 2 as I wanted to be able to use all of the cute photos that I had of my friends' baby Sarah.  I used the little flowers and envelopes that came with the collection for my embellishment clusters ... and added some light pink pearl swirls to add that extra texture and elegance.



And of course ... I made some cards with my scraps.

This uses a transparency which I attached to the card using eyelets.  Some of the hearts are attached behind the transparency and some are attached on the outside of it and (... hard to see this in the photo :).

This collection had a number of cute bird cut-outs which I couldn't resist using.  I used a spellbinder die to create this circular card --- what a fun shape!


More love birds ...

I embossed the front of this card using my Cuttle Bug and sanded the paper to make the pattern more prominent.


A special thanks to my scrappy friend Jenn who gave me the paper collection!

Be sure to visit again tomorrow for more inspirational creations!
