Stars & Stamps Sketch Challenge #202

Well Sunday means another Sketch Challenge over at OWH.  We have a beautiful sample which I started to follow but went off course somewhere and forgot to round one corner.  I'm still OK with the finished product though.  Let's hope a hero will be also.

I think it would make a good masculine card as there is no bling on here at all. The blue and vanilla card stocks are both  by SU!  The embossing folders I used were Square Lattice by SU! and a Cuttlebug Heart folder.  The XOXO were made with a Provo Craft Die and the hearts are Creative Memories punches.  I popped up both the square and the heart with SU! dimensionals.   That's about all there is to say about this one.  I do hope you are all having a great day where ever you are.  It is very raw and cold today and we are suppose to get snow and ice starting at midnight tonight.  I hope that translates to a lot of crafting time for me tomorrow.  I truly appreciate you stopping by.  Company is always nice.

  1. What a wonderful card and I'm sure it is going to be appreciated by a hero. It's just perfect for them to send someone they're missing and care so much about. I'm sure the recipient will love it.
    I love that X and O die.

    Snow sounds fabulous to me. I'm hoping for some this winter...not holding my breath, though.

    Stay warm and safe.

  5. let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!! LOL we have an inch or two on the ground and it looks so pretty!!
    I just love this card with the big x's and O's in blue! Wonderful embossing and papers, and guess who never noticed one of the corners was rounded off until you mentioned it! Isn't it funny how we focus on things and miss the obvious?! LOL
    Stay warm and craft away tomorrow - it's coming :)

  7. Donna, this is so pretty! I love the Square Lattice embossing folder since it always seems to make cards look so elegant - just like this one. That blue is so pretty and the hearts behind the X and O's are perfect! So beautiful!
    Heard y'all were having some rough weather up that way. Isn't hubby glad he doesn't have to get out in that mess anymore! Stay warm!!!

  8. I just love the embossing on your card. I've never seen those teeny tiny hearts before. I'm adding those to my wish list now. Wonderful job with this week's OWH sketch.

  16. Very soft blues and lots of texture probably does make this a good card for a hero to send home. You are so great for doing these cards Donna! I am always so impressed by all you do. Hugz!!!!!!
