Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge 75


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 SSSC75 if you plan to post your card in an online gallery.

I found my little Avery Lollipop stamp from Stamping Bella and was intent on using it for this week's sketch and I'm not sure she really fits in that circle, but she's so darn cute, she's staying!  haha!  This is the first time I've made a blondie - first time in my whole stamping life.  I guess I'm surrounded by dark-haired people, I forget there are other colors out there, lol!  This little girl reminds me of my sweet little niece :)  She left my daughter a message on the phone the other day that just melted my heart - saying how much she missed Avery and loved her.  Aw!!  Love her!

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!
