365 Cards #166 Sketchy Sunday

Here is the sketchy sunday challenge on 365 cards: I used Heidi Swapp paper and a "Lovey Dovey" stamp by Stampin up, and I think the result would make a great anniversary or wedding shower card.  Isn't this a great sketch?!

365 Cards: #111 Sketchy Sunday & PIO #25

I love this new sketch on 365 cards today!  I thought of this terrific medallion stamp called "Long Life" by Inkadinkado right away when I saw this challenge.  I embossed the image in pearl lustre hematite by Stampendous.  I couldn't figure out what to do for the lines at first, so I started digging in my charm drawer.  I found the fish charm first, then I had the idea to use buttons.  I cut the metal loop off the charm and the shanks off the buttons so they would lie flat, and added the gold ribbon to form the lines.
This card also works for this weeks challenge at Pile it on where they want you to "show some metal" on your card.

365 Cards #97 Sketchy Sunday

Yesterday was sketchy sunday on 365 cards.  when I saw the columns, I thought of the fluttering butterflies stamp that I have from The Angel Company.  I added rhinestones and stickles for added bling.  I kept adding details like the corner mount, and then finally cut out one of the butterflies and used a pop-dot to raise him up before I called the card complete.

365 Cards: Sketchy #41 & Bday Sundaes #4

                                                 Here is Today's challenge on 365 cards:  http://365cards.blogspot.com/2011/04/day-41-super-sketchy-sunday.html I instantly saw a cupcake when I saw this sketch!  so I remembered in my stash I have a terrific die cut that I bought from a friend on Etsy.  her name is Sandy, and here is a link to her shop:  http://www.etsy.com/shop/sandyssentiments?section_id=6898830  I started looking for other challenges that might inspire the rest of the card and I found another card challenge site called Birthday Sundaes: http://birthdaysundaes.blogspot.com/2011/04/challenge-4-inspiration-picture.html They have an inspiration picture for challenge #4  that shows pink and white stripes with a banner  in the background.  I chose party hats to emulate the banner for a festive embellishment.

365 Cards: Sketchy Sunday Day #34

This sketch was great! I used another die cut from K & Co's Sweet nectar pack.  Truth be told: I'm trying to justify my spending by seeing how much I can use from one purchase!  So far this has been a great buy for me, I just loved the colors and the variety of sizes and styles and it was on sale for $6.99 at Micheals.  The verse is recycled from a calander and the embellishments are mostly Jolee's.  Happy Easter!

365 Cards: Sketchy Sunday Day 27

Today's sketch challange got me to pull out this terrific 70's decal that I found while thrifting.  To me it appears she is playing that game "He loves me, He loves me not" with her daisy.  In John 3:16 we are told that Jesus not only loves you but that he died for you.  This sweet little girl is saying "He loves me, He loves me, He loves me! & I'm saying he loves you too :)

John 3:16 (NIV)

 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
