Thankful for a sketch

I am always thankful for a sketch because it's the part of card making I struggle with the most.  DeNami Design has a Sketch Challenge this month (see below) so had to play along... this is what I came up with. Thanks to the fabulous DT at DeNami for a great sketch and fabulous inspiration cards!




Really love this flowered paper... it's 100% not my colours but there's just something about it that works.... would you agree?

Thanks for stopping by.  Enjoy the rest of your weekend.... really wishing mine was a bit longer right now.  Been crafting a lot (read: avoiding cleaning my house) and helping hubby with car repairs (read: putting my foot on a break pedal).
Hugs,
Glenda

  3. Glenda, this is JUST BEAUTIFUL! I LOVE the colors, the patterned paper, and the way you stamped the daisy in between the words "warmest" and "wishes"!! Thanks for playing along in the DeNami Design Sketch Challenge!! And I'm definitely in favor of crafting over cleaning the house any day!!!! Good job!
