I just finished getting the colors ready when I saw that the new sketches were up. Love, love, love them. I so hope I get some done this week. I'm still in the middle of that major room re-organization!!

Thanks RAQ for hosting this week and for posting so early! Dee thanks for the ad colours! As coincidence would be, I just tried Mojo Monday for the first time this week so I do have that sketch completed. It's a 25th anniversary card. Some of you may remember that I had already made a 25th anniversary card but my brother needed one and he was visiting me so I gave him the one I had already made. Cricut used: Ornamental Iron 2 for the circle frame. It was actually 2 half circles that I welded using the Gypsy. Blackletter was used for the number 25. Gisele attached the following image(s):

Nice to see so many cards today!
Sandy – Wonderful sketch #2 – I really like the proportions of the images and layers! The princess looks adorable and such nice shading! Great flower and nice bow! Great interpretation of Sketch #3 – love the kite!
Cstanzione – Perfect card #2 in the ad colours! Love both sentiments! Sketch #3 is also great with your lovely silhouette. I might scraplift the saying for a “bon voyage” card that I need to make.
BingoLady – What an amazing card for Sketch #1! I hope you’re submitting it to the Mojo Monday challenge! I love the layering, textures, flowers, hat – just everything!

Here is my Sketch #2 in the ad colours. I thought I might have trouble putting something together with those colours but I think it worked out. Cricut used:Wild card for Argyle cut and Tags, Bags, Boxes and More for sentiment frames. Sunflower is Stretch Your Imagination, Accent Essentials and Damask Decor. I have a tutorial for the sunflower on my blog that you can read hereGisele attached the following image(s):

Gisele, gorgeous cards from you so far this week! The colors and papers you chose for your sketch 2 card are just beautiful! Love the framed look! I have to say, I am drooling over this card! Sleigh, welcome, pretty sketch 2 card! Great job in using the ad colors! I really like the stamped circle on your card! Sketch 1! I moved the banner thing to the back instead of the front, but I tried to follow the sketch as well as I could! You know me, I am always adding something or moving something around, lol!

Sleigh – welcome! Glad you joined us! Great sketch #2 in the ad colours! Sandy – what a lovely card – I love the different patterns yet they work well together! Great hot air balloon! Beautiful card for a special gal! Shelby – hope you start feeling better soon – it sounds very painful! BingoLady – great note pads. TFS your ideas on using up your scraps! Here is my card for Sketch #3 – Sorry but it’s for Christmas again. The weather is cool so I thought I would make something that works for the Repeat Impressions and Jingle Belles challenges. Cricut used – Ornamental Iron 2 for the red and white frames, Winter Frolic for the Carolers. Gisele attached the following image(s):
