Of the Earth Trio

It is Friday! Hooray! I have been admiring some new sketch blogs and decided to play. I went to work creating three thank you cards with the same colours but different sketches. This was a personal challenge for me! I also wanted to use only two stamp sets: Of the Earth (a Hostess Level 1 Set) and Thank You Kindly (a SAB FREE set with a $65 purchase).

This card was made for the "Everything but the Kitchen Sink" Blog. The sketch was fun and I used a 41/4"x 41/4" card base. I used some of that awesome Organza Ribbon again...I love it! Finally used my Modern Label Punch. I just love this sweet bird image from the "Of the Earth" set.My second card is a sketch from the "Unscripted Sketches" Blog. A new challenge for me and I liked the simple sketch. I dry embossed the white background with my Perfect Details folder and the Big Shot. I used the Corner Rounder Punch to add some interest to the card. Wished I had tied Organza Ribbon around the middle panel!
This third card is a sketch from the OCC Sketch Blog. I decided to make a paper flower to go with this card. I love making those paper flowers.That is it for now...I may try some of those wonderful colour challenges out there tonight!

Happy Stamping!
