Julee's Sketch!!


So ya know my friend, Julee??? Well, she just announced something really cool on her site this morning!!! Seems she will be opening up an online store which includes STAMPS designed by...........JULEE!!! How super cool is that??? So head on over and get all the deets!

To go along with that cool announcement, she posted a 'fast and furious' challenge to be completed and uploaded by tonight!! So what do you think I've been doing for the last hour???? Yep. Here is my card for her sketch challenge......and I REALLY hope to win some of her new stamps.....I KNOW they are gonna rock!!!

So I started by choosing my image first which was stamped for me by my Mommy.....*hi Mom*....since I don't have this stamp!! It's another Penny Black hedgehog and then I chose my patterned paper to go with! It is by Lil' Davis Designs and I LOVE the colour combo in it....I would never have thought of putting these colours together. The card base is standard size in Real Red and the pp is cuttlebugged and distressed with Chocolate Chip ink and a cosmetic sponge. The flip side of the pp is that soft sky colour which I stamped the flowers from Looks Like Spring on and sponged. The matting is done with Chocolate Chip cardstock and I coloured the image with my SU markers, of course!! I stamped the sentiment using my clear acrylic Paper Tray stamps and wouldn't you know, I got some ink on my finger which then got on my image!!?? I was ticked to say the least! SO I covered it up by punching through the image layer and the card base layer separately with my slot punch and adding some red grosgrain ribbon......can't even tell!! Then I used some Soft Sky coloured Prima Flowers and some white brads!!

I hope I win, I hope I win........think good thoughts!!! *giggle*

Cute card! You saved me! I had been so... busy with the challenges for Dare To Be Dirty celebration over at SCS that I forgot Julee's challenge. I realized that when I turned to your blog at 11:15 MT and realized that I only had 45 minutes to make the card, take the picture, upload to computer, add to blog, and add a comment and link to Julee's. The result one ugly but complete card linked to her blog at 11:56. Thanks a bunch, gal.

Super Cute, (Love those "hedgies!). Love how you used the embossing folder on the DP. This was a fun challenge. I got a late start but made it in under the wire. Didn't win but had fun and that's what counts. Ida
