Sketch Challenge Card

Happy Friday! Are you staying warm?? It's BEAUTIFUL here - brightly shining sun, fluffed cardinals in the trees and feeders - and a balmy temperature of 21! :) (Wind chill says it's feeling more like 10 degrees out there...)

Well. :D What to do to celebrate a Friday, toward the end of January? Make a card that fills a challenge, AND might inspire your Valentine's cards this year. :D

That's red glitter paper again - it's SO perfect for Valentine's Day, don't you think?? - with the silver and gold "foil". I think that name is a bad one for these; it's really shiny cardstock. It's not foil weight!

Anyway. :D That's Real Red, on Whisper White. The only stamp is the "I like you", which is from a FREE Sale-a-bration stamp set! :) I really like this card; it's clean and simple, and gets my idea across. :D

OK, I'm outta here! Have a WONDERFUL day - and be sure to make the time to stamp SOMEthing. STAY WARM!

I love all the elements you used on this card. Sketches are such a great design tool.

We're under a winter storm watch here - blowing and drifting of the 3" - 5" of new snow we are supposed to get, along with falling temps. So tired of the cold!

(Don't know where I got the idea you started with a sketch. Oh, well.)

Ginny, because the title is "sketch challenge card"! :D It WAS, from the group of SU demos online. :) You're not crazy - and I agree that sketches are such inspiring places to start! KEEP WARM and SAFE!
