Everything But the Kitchen Sink - Sketch Challenge #3

EBTKS Sketch Challenge

I'm so happy to participate in my first "official" challenge (should it have taken me all day?) Anyway, I had a blast and hoping that the more challenges I participate in the quicker my card will get made :)

When I first saw the sketch I looked through my stamps to find one that I thought would work with this challenge. I'm pretty happy with my choice of SU "Pretty Amazing."

My card is 51/4 x 4

SU Paper: Parisian Breeze Speciality Design, Not Quite Navy, Close to Cocoa, Bordering Blue and Rose Red

SU Ink Pads: Staz-on Timber Brown, Not Quite Navy and Rose Red

SU Punch: Scallop Oval and Scallop Edge

SU Markers: Close to Cocoa, Brocade Blue, Night of Navy and Rose RedOther: White card stock and accent

College Fresman Ladies

I've had the great pleasure of having these young ladies, plus others and a couple of guys in my 6th grade Sunday School class. I stayed with the same group 9th - 12th grade. I have enjoyed every minute of watching them mature into young Christian ladies.

Here goes.....my "Happy Heart Day" card. Be sure and look under the "Happy Heart Day" message.

Supplies Used:

SU Riding Hood Red and Pink Pirouette Paper

SU Basic Black and Ruby Red Stamp Pads

SU Watercolor Pencils

SU 1 3/4 Circle Punch

Accessories: SU Crystal Effects, SU Real Red Grosgrain Ribbon, Crystal Accent and White Brads

My First Card Challenge

I told myself today was the day to create my first card for a challenge. I return to work tomorrow, so wanted to go ahead and get this done. I hope to participate in other challenges. I'm going to have to find a way to work it into my schedule.
