I Joined a Sketch Challenge!

  Morning -I decided to have a go at a sketch challenge after seeing Kathies card. I even made two! The first one I used papers from Crafters Companion, flowers with a die from John Next Door, stencil from Artisan Designs, Sweet Pea stamp from AALL&Create coloured with promarkers.



Please note if any challenges have digi images for prizes I am just playing for fun and support as I don't have a printer

Your sketch-inspired card is such a delight, Carol! The Sweet Pea stamp is colored with such care—those Promarker blends really make the petals glow. I love how the Artisan Designs stencil adds gentle movement behind the florals, and the John Next Door die frames everything with elegance. Your thoughtful note about digi prizes shows such heart and community spirit. This card feels both fresh and full of kindness.

It looks beautiful! (I don't do sketches because they never seem to fit with the ideas I have in my head...) Hope you have a good weekend!

Hi Carol, thank you so much for supporting SSW2. I absolutely love your card, Sweet Peas are my very favourite flower, which my dad would grow every year for my mum. They have amazing perfumes and colours. I love your card with the Sweet Pea image and those beautiuful design papers. I adore your black flowers. This is a great card and thanks so much for sharing it with us over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 and good luck and I look forward to seeing you again soon.
Hugs
