CCMC 138


Good morning, Friends! I hope that you are all ready to take on a fabulous sketch challenge! Today at Create with Connie and Mary, there is a fabulous sketch challenge going on! Don't you love it?

For my card I started with a card base of Pear Pizzazz. Then I added a layer of designer paper from the Springtime Vintage pack. Behind this is a 1 3/4" circle punched from Rose Red cardstock. For my strip down the left side I punched a piece of Very Vanilla with the scallop trim border punch. On top of that I added a piece of Pear Pizzazz that I ran through the Big Shot using the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder. I also added a strip of Rose Red. For my focal point I stamped the vine and flowers stamp from Thoughts & Prayers in Pear Pizzazz and Rose Red markers and the greeting (from the same set) in Pear Pizzazz. I then decided to add a mini library clip with a piece of Rose Red seam binding ribbon tied around it. This is popped up. The last thing I did was to add a tiny pearl to each flower center. And there you have it! So is it spring yet???

Be sure to check out the Create with Connie and Mary site for more information on this challenge and to see what the rest of the design team came up with for this sketch. I do hope that you will find time to participate in this fun challenge! I can't wait to see what you come up with!
