Hello, cardmakers! I hope you had a great Thanksgiving weekend!
Don’t forget to get your Love or Valentine themed cards in ASAP so they can be counted toward the Archway + OWH Special Mission. We want lots of cookies for our troops! For them to count, the cards need to be received by your shipper on or before December 10th.
Today’s sketch would make some cute love cards, I bet. See what you can do with it!
We have two great sample cards today made by Kelly. She isn’t a blogger so be sure and leave some love on this post! Aren’t those flowers gorgeous? Thank you so much for these beautiful samples, Kelly!
Update: Turns out Kelly is a blogger after all! Oops! Please check it out and see more of her awesome work: You and Your Big Dreams.
Ok, folks, get busy making some love cards! Be sure and come back to link up your blog or gallery page so we can all see!
To play along in this week’s sketch challenge, simply upload a project using this week’s sketch to your blog or online gallery then leave the link to that entry using the Inlinkz widget at the bottom of this post. And remember, you may use this sketch at any time. Feel free to re-post the sketch on your blog along with your card… then come back and leave a link for us so we may all see your cards!
We encourage everyone to take a few moments to visit and leave comments for the other participants. Comments are a wonderful way to say thank you for sharing your creative project and inspires everyone to create.
