Ok, I'll admit it: I have a thing for Edward Cullen. And frankly, I don't care that he's is a 90+ yr old fictional vampire. There. I said it. It's out there now. ;) 
This week's Farm Fresh Friday sketch was created by my SCS sistah and TGF's Summer Design Team member, Mary Giles, so of course I just HAD to create something with it! 
I thought I'd use my favorite vamp, since he's been sitting in my stamp collection UNINKED for about two weeks now! (Shame on me.) And I couldn't think of any paper collection more perfect for broody/edgy Edward than Basic Grey, so I pulled some sheets of the old Skate Shoppe and Motifica collection. Out came the Distress Inks again for some sponging around the edges of the panels. The sentiment is from the Wonderland set and it reminded me of one of my favorite parts in the Twilight book; when Edward introduces himself to Bella and he has that little smirk on his face. *swoon* I gave this Edward a hint of red to his eyes. :)

Beautiful Sandra! How've you been? I feel like it's been forever! Wonderful take on Mary's sketch-I heart Edward, too! LOL!
Oh Sandra I love the colors! Thanks sooo much for playing along. I remember that part in the movie and after reading the books I had in my head his voice...when he said "hello" I was expecting it to be deeper. But I guess he is suppose to be 17 and not 30. Sigh.
such a fab card! Love the background paper you have used!
This is wonderful! You colored Edward perfectly! Love it!
Oh yay! I've been waiting to see what you'd do with this lil man! Great job with this sketch; threading the ribbon through eyelets is PERFECT! Love this!
Many of us <3 Edward, so fear not -- watching him on the teen awards with the girls, I don't know who was going ga-ga more, me or them, ha ha! Adorable color combo you've used here! Nicely done :)
Absolutely fabulous card! Going to have to get this stamp now!

What a great card! I just saw the movie this last weekend. I can't wait for the next one.
I'm a team Edward member too, and I love YOUR Edward. What a great clean cut card, Sandra. You are the master!! LOVE IT!
Super Duper cute!! I love the ribbon through the eyelets too! Great idea! Ok, now you've peaked my interest in those books. Gonna have to give them a try.
Love Edward and your card is fabulous!!
I hear ya sister. I have a thing for Edward too.
Your card is awesome with the circles or moons in the background and the coloring is perfection. Great job.
