S & S Sketch #97







Good Sunday Morning All. Today over at Stars & Stamps Blog they have given us our 97th Sketch Challenge. I went quite simple. I stamp a background paper with a SU stamp titled En Francais, which is a favorite of mine. I used a SU heart punch and die for one block. My sentiment is from the Gina K Designs set titled Love Notes. The larger block was stamped with one of the stamps from a retired SU set titled Heartful. My smallest block has some of the extra pieces from a MS heart border punch. I sponged all of the blocks with some Real Red ink from SU and added a small red gems as my finishing touch. That will have to do it for me today. See you later on. Thank you for stopping by, it really does meal a lot to me.

Enjoy your Sunday. Our day today here in Southeastern Massachusetts is going to be a very nice one around 55 degrees, so off to the back yard for, what is hopefully, our last day of picking up leaves. Then back inside to start putting up some Christmas decorations. See you again soon.

  1. Donna, this is just so lovely! Great sketch for these images too. Love the heart, brads, flower images, everything! Now you're making me start thinking of Valentine cards - but I have to finish Christmas first!
    Hope you have a great day.

  2. I really like how you used the same paper for all the squares. I feel like I was making this sketch much more complicated that it was! Nice job!

  7. Just saw this sketch this morning when I got back and I wasn't sure how to use it until I saw your card! I love the CAS design. Using the same background dp for each space is perfect! Love the heart. :-D

  11. Donna, I really like the way you chose different embellishments for each rectangle and coordinated them with the same color. Great hint about using a border punch to get small shapes!

    Thanks for the Copic hints you left on my blog. I'll be looking for that ink and paper on my next shopping trip.
