Winners For Sketch 179!

The Clean Team has chosen the Princesses for you this week and our hostess Amy has chosen the Queen!  


The Queen of Clean:  Colleen Begley from Colleen's Creative Corner

I loved seeing the variety of cards in the gallery this week.  Y'all did so many different things with this sketch.  I ended up choosing Colleen's card because I love everything about it -- the stenciled, layered background, the tiny sequins, the coloring, the paper piecing...so many things to admire and examine. It's a little work of art.  Congratulations, Colleen!  You are our Queen of Clean this week.
     


Please come back tomorrow for a new sketch from Jen Timko!

So many gorgeous cards to choose from! You all make it really hard to choose a winner, but this week I've chosen this fabulous birthday card from Bronwyn.

Winners For Sketch 176!

The Clean Team has chosen the Princesses for you this week and our hostess Cindy has chosen the Queen!  


The Queen of Clean:  Beth from Beth's Little Card Blog

Wow!  Thanks so much to all of you awesome stampers who played along with my sketch this week, and an extra kudos to those of you who took the extra challenge of creating a 4" x 9.25" card.  The results were stunning and there are so many wonderful cards and so much inspiration in the gallery.  

Beth's card made my heart flutter with her gorgeous fluttering butterflies.  The colors are so beautiful and her coloring skills are exceptional.  The sentiment font and DSP she choose are both perfect complements to the theme of her card.  Congratulations Beth!  You are my choice for the Queen of Clean this week!!
     


Please come back tomorrow for a new sketch from Karren!

Freshly Made Sketches #176 - A Sketch by Cindy H.

We are so excited to visit your blog and to see what YOU create with our sketch!

Hi!  Cindy Hall here, and it's my turn to host our sketch challenge.  I decided to give you something a little different this week... an elongated 4" x 9-1/4" size!  I love cards made in this size, and if you're not into making your own envelopes, a simple #10 regular business envelope (4-1/2" x 9-1/2") is perfect!  However, if this size does not appeal to you, feel free to cut it down, use a note card, or just use the follow the sketch on a standard A2 size.  Are you up to the challenge?   I can't wait to see how you use it!
