Today marks the debut of another fabulous sketch challenge over at Skipping Stones Design! A fun, whimsical little sketch that I think you'll love. I played around with the lovely Sentiment Frames set and some pattered paper for my version of the sketch. You've really got to check out the blog for prize details and challenge rules, and to see the great inspiration from the design team and guest designers!
(Yep, my card picture is pretty huge, but can you see the linen impression? I think, as well as maybe a few other crafty gals think, when you feel as though a card is missing something, it never fails to add a bit of linen impression and you end up with a smile on your face...)
