DT card for the Sketch 'n' Stash Challenge


Good Morning to you all my wonderful crafty friends.
I hope you all had a good weekend and feel ready for the new week ahead.

Today is the start of a new Sketch 'n' Stash Challenge.
This week we are using Sketch number 22 and our optional theme is Lots of Layers.
Our sponsor this week is the wonderful Lili of the Valley who will give a £10 voucher to the lucky winner.

For my card I have used another gorgeous image from the LOTV Vintage Boys black and white Sketch Pad which I have coloured with Promarkers. 



Here is the sketch, I have rotated it to fit my image

Items Used:
Image - from LOTV Sketch Pad Vintage Boys coloured with Promarkers
Sentiment - Personal Impressions
Doodlebug Sprinkles
Twine and charms from stash

If you take a look at the  Sketch 'n' Stash Challenge, you will see the wonderful creations made by the rest of  the Design Team.


I would like to enter my card into the following fabulous challenges:
As You Like it!  -  Spots of Stripes - I do like both it really depends on the image, I think stripes work for this one. I also like how you can alternate the direction on the same card. For some reason I think they work well for male cards, not sure why!
ABC Challenge - Z for Zebra (stripes or Black and White)
Graph'It Colour Challenge - Anything Goes
Stampin' For The Weekend  - Autumn/Fall Colours
Seize the Birthday - Birthday (optional texture)
Natalie and Amy -  For the Boys


Thank you so much for taking the time to stop and look at my blog today. I really do appreciate it and love to read any comments you may wish to make.
Bye for now
hugs

Fabulous male design and I agree about the stripes - I am often drawn to them for male cards! The little tool charms are a gorgeous little touch!
Big hugs, Kat xx

Karen said...

Sue, this is such a spectacular masculine card. The papers couldn't be more lovely and I simply adore that sweet image. I love the red paint.. it adds such a gorgeous pop of color atop the warmer hues. :o) How perfect are those charms. :o) I need to keep my eye out for some sweet baking ones! Beautiful work on this card, my talented friend. (I agree about the stripes! I think stripes and plaid work so well for male cards.) I hope you're having a happy week. :o)

Hugs and blessings!
