sweet sunday sketch challenge #54

 

Good morning - It's time for another Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge! Here is the deal: make a card with this layout and use the Mr. Linky box down at the end of my post to enter your card. On Thursday at 10 PM (Mountain Time), I'll randomly select one card to feature on my blog. So, as long as your card is linked in the Mr. Linky box by 10 PM Thursday, 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 SSSC54 if you plan to post your card in an online gallery.

I found this set on my shelf, all lonely and sad and the little birdie told me he needed some ink.  Just a little to get him through the next year of neglect on my shelf.  Poor little thing.  So this card is for you, little birdie - I still love you!  Cutie pie.

The Sweet Sunday Stampers have samples to show you today, so don't forget to stop on by to see:

Have fun!
Karen
