Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge 58

 

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 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 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 SSSC58 if you plan to post your card in an online gallery.


As you can tell, I took some artistic liberty with my own sketch this morning - I had it in my head that I was going to use these little butterflies, and well, the squares underneath were just too large, so I opted for circles underneath the butterflies.  And small ones at that, LOL!  The card is a 6.5" square, scored in half - so the card size is 6.5" x 3.25".  The colors come from this week's Color Throwdown - olive, brown, pink, and white.  Super cute!!

I'm using InLinkz instead of Mr. Linky, so I hope it works {crossing my fingers}.  I had trouble with Mr. Linky and apparently did lose all the entries listed last week.  I'm SO sorry about that.  So I won't be listing the winner for SSSC57 since I can't get back to all of them. 

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

Have fun!
Karen



recipe -
stamps: flight of the butterfly
