Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge 136


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 SSSC136 if you plan to post your card in an online gallery.

For my card today, I'm using By LORi Designs digi image called Lollipop - Sisters and I printed it out as a wallet size and colored it with Copics.  I tried my hardest to color hair like the uber talented Jen Shults - have you seen her mad coloring skills??  The patterned papers are from the 6x6 Lime Twist Happy Go Lucky pack and I added a few Stampin' Up! buttons. 

I have some exciting news for many of you who have been asking me if I would put together a sketch book - well, I've put all of the sketches on Flickr!  Yes!  You can see all of the SSSC sketches in one place from now on, so I hope this will inspire us to use those long forgotten sketches from the beginning.  I know I should use them more!

The Sweet Sunday Stampers have amazing sketch samples to show you today, so stop on by to see:
Thanks for stopping by!
Karen


recipe -
