Totally Gorjuss (DT) - A Sketch

A warm welcome to you dear friends... from a very cold Cape Town... wow, is it wet and freezing cold ?  Let's not get morbid now shall we, we have a challenge to get to...lol   We've a wonderful sketch over at Totally Gorjuss and here it is...


I've decided to give the stamps a rest this week and as mentioned in previous posts I am so enjoying browsing around Pinterest and pinning other crafter's beautiful cards for inspiration.  I thought this sketch would be the perfect opportunity to try something new.  Hope you like it!

The paper is gorgeous from the Bazzill Basics Paper range, Vintage Marketplace.  Love it!   I decided to haul out the embossing folders again and found this gorgeous pattern which I have not used before.  The sentiment is computer generated by myself.  Inked around the edges of my paper with Versa Magic's Sahara Sand ink.

Here's another view so that you can get a peek of the inside too...  I've really kept it very simple and left lots of space to write as this card will soon be winging it's way overseas.


Our wonderfully generous sponsor this week is Joanna Sheen.  Please visit her online store for all your crafty needs.  The service is superb!


Thanks so much for popping by to visit.  I hope you'll be inspired to take part in our challenge.  Please visit the rest of the TG girls for further inspiration.

Big hugs, Sharon x

Butterflies are one of my favourites so this is a definite hit!!!!! The colours work really well too!!! I am green with envy as I haven't been able to find another MS butterfly to replace the one I bought which didn't work!
I really love pearls to finish off a card, too.

Beautiful card with the elegant touch of butterflies. We sometimes forgot about the older embossing folders and they are so pretty. Lovely papers Sharon!
