Paper Players Challenge #40-Sketch by Nance and Blog Candy Winner

What a terrific week!  As you probably noticed, I have been playing with My Digital Studio and designed a brand new blog banner and created the new background too!  It is SO much fun!!!!  And I am very excited to post my first Card Tutorial for sale!  It has been well received!  Thank you to Cathy, Trudy, LeAnne, AM and Sandi for encouraging me to make my tutorial available to others!

This week at the Paper Players, Nance has provided us with a terrific sketch that can be dressed up or kept simple!  I decided to land somewhere in the middle of those two choices, coming up with a card that was easy to make and has some "extras" on it.

Here is the sketch!

And here is the card I created for it!  I always need more birthday cards!! Can you see that I embossed the top of the cupcake...so fun!!! And I just love the colour Melon Mambo!

Now, to announce my Blog Candy Winner!  A big thank you to everyone who shared their favourite type of challenge with me!  The randomly selected winner is...Tania!

I like sketches. It can be nice to have a theme, as Jan says, to help with stamp decisions, but sometimes I want the freedom to just choose a set on my own based on my personal card making needs.

Congratulations Tania!  Please send me your mailing address and I will get your candy out to you right away.  My email is located at the top of my blog. :D

Thank you for stopping by!  Be sure to visit the Paper Players Blog to see the design inspiration and to upload your own creation!

Smiles,

Lesley
