Sketchy!

I've added this new sketch to my Sketch File Blog
I used a tall thin mini DL card to make my first card using the sketch.

The papers I've used on this card are the lovely Pompeii collection from Dream Street Papers I just love the colours and designs in this set.

I reverted to my favourite 14cm square card to make a second version. This one is a commissioned ard which I've left almost to the last minute - no change there, then!

More Dream Street Papers for this one - this time the Rue collection.
Instead of the squares I've used some Cuttlebug hearts, cut from paper covered chipboard, the large word is cut with the Craft Robo, gorgeous satin ribbon from Ribbon Oasis, and I've added some hints of red to lift the browny shades a bit.

Now I just need to get it in the post to my customer in time! I hope she likes it. I hope you do to.

I'd love you to join in and have a go at my sketches, I try to add a new one every week or so and the older ones are all there for you to play with and add your links any time you like.

Thanks for popping by

This is a lovely sketch for a Dl card and I love the DL made up with it. But it looks so good on the square card as well. I do like the browny colours you have used and the hint of red really lifts it! X

Love this as a square card, Kathy! Mind you, I could be being swayed by the deep brown and the lovely satin ribbon - much more "me" than the pastels!

Both are gorjus. Love the papers and it's a great sketch.

Love Karen x
