Good morning, everyone! Has it really been two weeks since the last Sweet Sunday Sketch? AND it's September already???? Good golly! Time sure flies. :) I'm so glad you all stopped by today because, not only do I have a new sketch to share with you, I've got the new Curtain Call challenge too! The Alley Way Stamps is sponsoring the new Curtain Call so Stacey asked us to help the CC Crew show off some TAWS amazingness! :)
So, first up...the new sketch - clean & simple to the core:
Of course, there are MANY ways to make it crazy-fussy, but I stayed pretty true to the sketch. The new Curtain Call inspiration photo is all about "Back to School" so my card ended up putting a *twist* on the expected:
I used the ruler stamp from Learning Curve (which just so happens to be the set someone could win over at the Curtain Call Challenge), and the "you" and "me" are from Jibber Jabber - actually, the "me" is from the end of "welcome" since I don't have a "me" stamp! The chalkboard technique was PERFECT for this challenge so I went with it and made this card for someone special:
I had to use a white pencil crayon for the + sign and the line but I kind of like how this card turned out...the colors were also right from the inspiration photo. :)
What do you think? Are you ready to play along with both challenges? Need to see more? All of the fabulous Sweet Sunday Stampers have sketchy inspiration for you, so please stop by and say hello to:
Vicki Burdick

And don't forget to check out the Curtain Call to see how their Crew interpreted this awesome picture. I'll be back tomorrow so please try to stop back in. :) Have a great Sunday!
