Sketchfest Monday plus 2

Here’s today’s sketch from Caardvarks:

I started by choosing a couple of papers from Studio Calico’s Cotillion kit. I hand cut the scallop from the Anna Griffin paper and chose a piece of Papertrey Enchanted Evening to set it off. Then while hunting through my stash for something entirely different, I came upon this old, old sticker set that had just the right colors, so here it is, a totally unexpected result:

I also made a card for the 2 Sketches 4 You site, but didn’t finish it in time to post it on their blog. It’s a thank you note for friends who invited us to spend some time in their exquisite gardens.

All Papertrey except for the gingham ribbon from my stash. I love the Everyday Button Bits stamps. I almost didn’t order them, but am surely glad I did.

Here is another card from that set for a young man’s upcoming birthday:

Papertrey cardstock and stamps; patterned paper Cosmos Cricket Boyfriend papers.
