Card Sketch Wednesday #6

Are you ready for Card Sketch Wednesday #6? Hope you'll play along! The details are listed below.

Sketch Wednesday Challenge Details:
The details are pretty simple--make a card of any theme you choose utilizing the card sketch posted on my blog and then on the sketch challenge announcement post, reply with a comment posting a link to your blog or online gallery so that everyone can view how you utilized the sketch. You have all month to complete each challenge. So there is no confusion, a "month" runs from the first day of the month through the last day of the month--example Aug 1st-Aug 31st.

Bonus Opportunity for Participating in Sketch Wednesday Challenges:

Each month, I will assign a number in order from all of the comments/links posted from all qualifying participant weekly sketch challenge cards and draw one lucky winner for a package of blog candy from me! All of the blog candy goodies that I will offer will be craft/card making related--embellishments, ink pads, images, stamps, ribbon, punches etc.

Here's my sketch card!

I down sized this sketch by using it to make an A2 size card. I used my Bic Markers to color the Lady bug image, and then I matted the image a few times with cardstock. I used smooth black cardstock for the card front and added ribbon scraps to the left side as shown in the sketch. Next, I adhered the matted image to the center of the card front. I used embossing ink to stamp "Thank you!" and heat set it, using white embossing powder. To finish the card, I added a white brad to each of the top & bottom right hand corners and then adhered the card front to a white cardstock base.

Stamps: Both by DRS Designs- G695 Ladybug Stack, A070 Small Thank You

Ink: Versafine Onyx Black,

Paper: Smooth White cardstock from Office Depot, Bazzill cardstock

Accessories: Bic Markers, American Craft Brads, Coluzzle, misc. ribbon from my stash, Embossing Ink by Rubber Stampede, Embossing powder by Creative Beginnings.

Have fun with this sketch! Can't wait to see your cards!

Smiles,

Jennifer
