That is a great idea!! Thanks! I use double sided tape as my adhesive so I knew I didn't want to try that!
This is a fun sketch. I really enjoyed making cards with this one... This is the favorite of the ones that I have made so far... I am going to play with some other colors-- and i need to make a thank you card for my best good friend more coming soon!!! Gallery at Splitcoaststampers

This is my first challenge and upload. I realize now that I should have turned the image before I saved it. Can I fix that now? Oh well, I think you can understand it anyway. It was fun. I used the color challenge from Tues for my color inspiration.
I am now finished packing and I will be leaving soon for the airport. I am heading out to REGIONALS with my Upline (Lana aka Lunarlana). I plan on meeting lots of SCSers there and taking a TON of pictures.
I'm doing SC after a looong time. I don't think the card follows the sketch exactly...
The background is popping pastels & the irregular focal piece is watercolored.
Location: Somewhere in Washington, buried under stamps, scraps, and laundry!

Here's my very basic first attempt: Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
(Oops! I was in such a hurry to get this posted before going to work that I forgot to crop my picture! Sorry!)
This is my first attempt at a sketch challenge and I combined it with the technique and color challenges from this week also- thanks for looking!Gallery at Splitcoaststampers

WAVING GOODBYE!!!
Have a blast Bethie!!! If you have half as much FUN as I had at Portland Regionals you'll be giddy for weeks!!!!
My first card for this challenge and I got to use a new background stamp! Thanks Beth for the sketch, I really like it and I doubt I'd have come up with it on my own!
Here's mine. Better late than never. I find myself very intimidated by all the beautiful cards and artists.....mine just don't seem to measure up after browsing this site --- but it's still fun!!
I accepted your hat trick challenge, Beth AND added Beate's tutorial for this week -- Dazzling Diamond Dust!! Whew, what fun -- I love combining challenges! Here's my Quad Challenge Birthday card!
Great sketch/layout -- I love it. Thanks for looking!
2 more cards from me! love the sketch!
The first one has gold embossed flowers in the background but the scan makes it look green n dirty, ewww....
For the 2nd card, I used the white gel pen for the first time! Took a long time to draw the short lines but I love the effect.

Thanks so much for the sketch! This is my first time, I think I just might be hooked. Here is my first, I did keep it very simple but I was pleased with it.
Well here is my entry, I really like this sketch. I add Crinkled chalks to the mix.
Some one just sent me a PM to let me know the link was wrong, so here is the new link. HOpe this works. Thank you for the heads up. Gallery at Splitcoaststampers
Your link says your photo is not found in data base. Usually that means it got deleted & you may need to re-upload & then post a new link.

OK, I was able to combine 3 of this weeks challenges in this card. This is my first time doing any of the challenges, so I hope that I followed the rules!
I uploaded my card last night, but I was too intimidated to post here about it. When I got online tonight I saw that some very nice ladies had commented on it (thanks!), so I have a little more confidence now. I really liked this sketch challenge and everyone has made some wonderful cards. My favorites button is getting quite a work-out.
