Thinking ahead about St. Paddy's Day? Anything that will bring me closer to Spring is a good thing! So here's a Spring-y card for this week's SKETCH FOR YOU TO TRY. I couldn't pass up a couple of new KETTO images from STAMPING BELLA when I recently ordered the new Cosmo Cricket papers. I've been eyeballing these little gals for a while. They're very sweet and whimsical but with an edge. I really like that!
This is MISSMATCH KETTO and she's wearin' the green in hopes of wishing someone a very lucky day. The gingham paper is from the the new Cosmo Material Girl pack. The darker green patterned paper is from a Memory Box holiday pack. I added super-wide green striped ribbon from SU! (some of my very favorite!), a white paper flower, green silk shamrock, and a button center to jazz it up. The little sentiment is from A Muse Artstamps.
This is your last week to enter JEN'S SFYTT CONTEST. All you have to do is make a card using one of the February sketches and upload your card to the corresponding slideshow guestbook. Really...Jen's got a fabulous prize package that you won't want to miss out on! All of the details can be found on her blog.
Need more inspiration using the sketch? Visit the other SFYTT girls today to see what they've come up with...I'm off to do that right now!
