Happy Wednesday! Few comments on Friday asking when I sleep, lol! Yep I sleep! But I don't spend time on message boards etc like I used to so I have more time to CREATE! Plus Bob went snowboarding at the weekend and I got a TON of stuff done (the digital kits finished off!). This sketch was totally inspired by the St Patricks day card I blogged about on Monday. I opted for a circle because it fit better in the card. As usual you can find the basic template available free in my store for a limited time. Plus I have other templates available too!
Already I can see this is going to be a favorite of mine as I've made 3 cards with this design already! As you can see I chose to cut my card font and add the circle overlapping the edge. I use 2 circles, one for the inside too. Loving this one...

How cute is this? Totally loving the colors and the embellishment! Cindy rocks the digi, hybrid AND cards! So much talent!

Love the use of the doily on this for the circle embellishment! I have a yarn one somewhere I need to use! May have to dig that out! Thanks for the inspiration Kristin!

"with love" card by Linda Flinders
I had to chuckle at Wendy this week! She sent 3 versions of this card. Each time taking something off the card. I think that goes to prove that even the sketch girls second guess themselves sometimes! (ps: Wendy, I liked it better with the blue strip! lol)

"birthday wishes" card by Jackie PriceSupplies: K & Company pp; Stickles;
Kelly gave a great option with her card, giving a positive and negative effect with the papers and cardstock. This could be a great design just in cardstock, with different colors, especially for a mens card! Ok gonna stop now before I have to go off and create! lol.

These are fabulous cards - great sketch to work from, so how could they not be?
I've been really remiss recently on doing the sketches/dares as I've had so much going on to steal my time away. I'm missing them like crazy and need to get back on track!
Soon.....
