I've never been big on sketches, kind of do my own thing, but I think it's always good to try new things!! The "You're a Star" card is (obviously) based on this sketch. Every week, Jen del Muro posts a SFYTT (Sketch For You To Try) and gives you awesome examples, AND there are prizes! I think I might have found a new love for sketches......'cause who doesn't love prizes??And as for prizes....if you leave a comment on this post.....you will have a chance to win some of your own Red, White and Blue blog candy! Thought it would be fun to "start out with a bang" here on my new blog! Hope you enjoy the sketch, the "eye candy", and who knows....maybe some "blog candy"!!
Love the card (and the sketch!) The sparkle on the stars gives it a little extra pop! Way fun!!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a beautiful card. I really like the checkered background paper. The "you're a star" stamp adds a nice effect, as well. Great work!
ReplyDeleteI just love this colour combo. Just such a lovely card. Why oh why do I never have the right colours LOL.

4th of July, one of my favorite holiday's. Never thought of making or even sending a card for that holiday!! But now it is quite possible that a card will be made.. Love this Laura...
ReplyDeleteLaura...I really like the take you did on the card sketch making it a 4th of July card. I think you have found a new love in Sketches.
ReplyDeleteLove the card--I may have to try out the sketch myself!
ReplyDeleteHooray for the Red, White, and Blue! Very nice card.
ReplyDeleteOK, where have I been and how did I almost miss out on Blog Candy? Love this card.
ReplyDeleteBlog candy, already? Boy, you did start out with a bang! You did a great job on this card! I love the sparkly ribbon you ran down the middle of it. Hope you're having as much fun with your blog as I am!
ReplyDeleteReally love the card. And I know you won't believe this but I think I have some of that red plaid paper you used on there lol.
