I've been having internet issues all morning - hopefully everything is working and this post is showing up properly!
Keyword for this sketch is: AMYRS76
I made up a separate page with all the sketch/linking info etc etc.

Here's the card I made that inspired this sketch:
Congrats Graduate
For once I used NO image stamps - JUST sentiments!!
When my Congrats Sentiments set first arrived and I had to make a sample for the sneak peek the idea for this card popped into my head.
I didn't have time to create it then so I jotted down the idea and finally got a chance to create it this week *grin*
Basically all I did was stamped the lined paper backgrounder from CHF onto white cardstock with light blue ink, then I stamped several of the sentiments from the Congrats Sentiments set onto the lines (and no I am not that good at lining them up - I used my acrylic stamp positioner to do that!!).
I stamped the congrats separately onto red cardstock and punched it out with SU's Word Window Punch then adhered it at the top.
I decided on which sentiment I wanted to feature then "highlighted" it with a yellow Copic marker. To really emphasize the point I punched out the red arrows (another SU punch) and adhered them with dimensionals all pointing to the sentiment.
Oh and the edge of the "lined" paper was done with another SU punch (I really went with the punches on this card eh?? LOL)
All the patterned paper is from Cosmo Cricket's The Boyfriend collection.
On the inside of the card I did the same thing, then just stamped another of the sentiments from the Congrats Sentiments set in red ink and that was it!
It ended up being a pretty quick and easy card to create - and I'm SO happy with it! I kept trying to add more to it (I tried REALLY hard to add ribbon!!! Of course!!) - but realized it looked SO much better without a ton of stuff on it!
So I hope you guys liked my sketch sample (and the fact that I actually MADE a sample for the sketch for the first time in how long!! Hopefully I can keep this up!) and I can't wait to have y'all play along!
Have fun!!
