I wanted to make a card for fun this week so I decided to play in Sassy Cheryl's challenge. The challenges are all about pink this month and this one adds a sketch.
Now, I must admit that I am not a fan of sketches because I never seem to be able to do them justice. I know, I'm weird but I actually find them harder to work with when they should make it easy. After I finished the card I realized that this will be a great sketch for Christmas cards since they call for clean and simple or you have to float a loan for the postage (remember my story about last year).
Sassy Cheryl draws such fun images and I thought I could use this one for all sorts of occasions. It reminds me of an apartment building for birds. What a great place to hang out.
I am going to enter this card in the following challenges:
Sassy Cheryl's - Pink with Sketch
Cardmadfairy's Digi Days - Spots & Stripes
Clearly I Stamp - Pink
Image: Double Decker Birdhouse (Sassy Cheryl's)

I can understand not wanting to do the sketch challenges. Like it puts 'limits' on ya. :) And I know how you don't like that. :)
ReplyDeleteRegardless, I think your card is stunning, but that's always a given with you! Lovin' the bow and butterfly too, but my favorite are the little button/brads.
Thanks for playing along in the Sassy Cheryl's challenge this week. Always enjoy having you join us.
Oh Cec...I love this!! Such delicious DPs...let me just say...you definitely ROCKED this sketch challenge! Thanks so much for joining us this week at Sassy Cheryl's. Hugs. Pat Frank
