TSG67: Sketch By Pam

Monday, August 9, 2010

Good morning my sweet peeps!

Hope you had a great weekend! We had a jam packed weekend with the local carnival on Friday night, house hunting on Saturday morning and blueberry picking in the afternoon, breakfast out on Sunday, grocery shopping, a lazy afternoon drive, the laundry and I even baked a blueberry pie! Love weekends like that!

Since it is Monday, I have another There She Goes challenge for you. This week's challenge, TSG67, is brought to us by the bold and beautiful Trendsetter Pam Varnell!


It's an awesome sketch, full of possibilities, so I hope you all can play along this week! I pulled out the awesome new set Puppy Love for this card because I was itching to color in the cutie pie in it!

First off, I colored her in with my reinkers and aquapainter brush, then I cut it out using the large circle nestibilities and matted it with a red piece of cardstock cut with the big scalloped circle nestie. I pretty much kept close to the layout but used the corner punch on the vertical panel just to change things up a bit. Each panel was sponged with a little Frayed Burlap and machine stitched. I had to add the ribbon because the card just needed a little something extra. You all know what that's like right? :)

Here's a look at the inside of the card. I couldn't find the right place to add a sentiment to the outside, so I added one of the larger sentiments in the set to the inside instead. LOVE how Jess includes all sorts of sentiments, large and small, in all her sets!

To be eligible for the giveaway, you are to create a card that incorporates Pam's sketch, and then come back to the TSG blog to add your name and a link to your project in the InLinkz that is located at the bottom of this challenge post. This challenge is open until the winner has been announced on the following Monday (August 16th). The winner will get a $5 gift certificate to use in the TSG web store!
