OCC Sketch Challenge

Hello and thanks for stopping by!! Today's card is for this week's challenge over at Our Creative Corner. Our March host, Kim Teasdale, has challenged the OCC to a fun sketch challenge. We warmly invite you to play along!!

For my card layout, I used some of the NEW Parisian Breeze Specialty paper by Stampin' Up! The very first layer background was created using the Friendly Word wheel. I then sponged on some close to cocoa to make it pop a little. All of the layers were pierced using the Crafters Tool Kit & Mat Pack. This beautiful image from the Stampin' Up! set called Friends 24-7. To finish off the card, I added some of the NEW Organza Ribbon by Stampin' Up!

We hope you will join us in our weekend challenge, remember there is no time limit on our challenges. Please feel free to participate in any of our challenges at any time. To play along, just post your project to your blog or gallery, then include a link in the Mr. Linky form at the bottom of the OCC post. If you upload to SCS, use keyword: OCCC.

Please stop by tomorrow, I have reached 200,000 hits so I have some fun blog candy to giveaway!! Thanks again for stopping by, have a wonderful weekend!!
