The Paper Players sketch challenge




Hi everyone!

The challenge this week at The Paper Players is this fun sketch from LeAnne:



I turned the sketch,and made a quilt for my rectangular piece, and used the sentiment "sending" for the circle. This is such a versatile sketch, and one I know I will use again.




I've had my eye on the " Sending and Wishing" stamp and die set for quite awhile, and I finally ordered it, thanks to a gift certificate I won from Darnell's last NBUS challenge. Thanks again Darnell! I sure am having fun with this set, and have already made several cards with it.

I'm also entering this at Darnell's NEW NBUS challenge:

Never-Before-Used-Schtuff (Stamps, Dies, EFs, etc.)


Be sure to head on over to The Paper Players and play along with this fun sketch!

Oh, Laurie, what a brilliant take on the sketch! It really does look like a quilt and that sediment design is stunning, as well!! I'm delighted that you were able to get yourself something that you love and are getting a lot of use from! And I'm delighted to have your support and entry again in my NBUS Challenge #4!!

Wonderful card that takes me back to my cross-stitch patterns! I always loved making these timeless designs. It never occurred to me to make a card that looks like a quilt. Thanks for such a great idea!!
