Sketch Challenge Card
I managed to squeeze in a few minutes this afternoon to make a sketch challenge card. It may be a little busy but…oh well! If you’d like to play along with this week’s SCS sketch challenge visit here.

This card uses my new Fancy Pants Bella Brush Acrylic Stamps. I can’t believe I’ve had them for weeks and am just getting them out now! They are gorgeous! I think I need to try them againt to do them justice but I had fun just inking them up! I paired them with my Basic Grey 6×6 paper pad, added some distressing, some sponging and some stitching to come up with this card. Basic Grey paper, Fancy Pants stamps, ribbon & Prima flower from Jacksonbelle.

I LOVE these Fancy Pants Flourishes. I drool over them all of the time. You did a wonderful job with this challenge. The colors and paper go together so well!
OH, Julia! You are really making me regret my frugality when I saw these this weekend. . . Fabulous!
This is lovely, wish I had more time to do these sketches! Oh well maybe this weekend!
Very pretty! Love that velvet brad and the FP images!!!
Yikes, that is beautiful!
Wow! Gorgeous card, Julia! I like how the colors and shapes of the stamps complement the paper.
This is really beautiful! I think I may have to get some of this Fancy Pants paper. It’s funny…I was trimming my new “A Tree For All Seasons” set today and thinking of doing this exact layout with it and a particular word stamp… I won’t have time to do it for the challenge, though. Seems like I’ve always got something else in the works…
How pretty! I love the colors you used!! Love the paper too! Super nice!
what an elegant take on the sketch challenge, I love it! SO soft and pretty! I went with a soft color palette too. Love your consistently beautiful work!
Oh this is so very beautiful!! I love the colors and those stamp flourishes you used!

What a pretty, pretty card! I love acrylic stamps and have been wanting a set of flourish stamps. Looks like I just found that set.
Beautiful card, Julia!

Beautiful! I love the papers and the stamps you used. When I first saw it I thought the stamped areas were a lovely designer paper.
