FINALLY! The long awaited sketch!

You would think that since I am the one issuing the challenges, I would be a bit more on the ball and have the challenge ready before I actually announce it. Hmmm...not so much - LOL!

So...here it is:

It is hand drawn and VERY simple, so my apologies for that. I have forgotten much of what I learned when I was taking digital scrapbooking classes. This would have allowed me to make a fancy, computer generated sketch. However, I have had this idea for a sketch in my head for a while and the card came out EXACTLY the way I saw it in my head! Don't you just LOVE it when that happens???

Here is the card I created using my sketch:
I'm loving the Bella Bleu papers with Kraft and Not Quite Navy. I'm thinking I would have been just a titch happier if I had used Very Vanilla Craft Ink, but I don't have any in my stash (yet!), so went with Whisper White instead.

I'll be adding this card to a Bella Bleu class I'll be having later this month, so I'm not providing my ultra secret measurements - LOL - though savvy stampers (especially those with SU! tools) will be able to figure it out without a problem, I'm sure!

What do you think?

STAMPS: Simple Said
INK: Whisper White Craft and Not Quite Navy Classic
PAPER: Whisper White, Kraft and Not Quite Navy Cardstock, Bella Bleu DSP
ACCESSORIES: Punches

Happy Stampin'!
