On to the challenge, this week we are back for another sketch!  I love sketches - it gives me a jumping off point.  Most of the time I stick very close to the sketch - other times it is just a very loose base.

Colleen, our wonderful sketch designer, has provided this sketch for you to create with this week.





We would like to welcome back Cris, our guest designer.

Challenge 151 - Red AND Purple

I am currently having technical difficulties - I was on the phone for several times, for well over an hour with our Internet Service Provider.  Unfortunately it seems like we need some new equipment as our internet cuts out about every minute or so.

I will get this updated just as soon as possible - I am on the West Coast - and it is a holiday in our province (Monday) - so it may not be until later in  the day.

I apologize to our Sponsor as well as our readers if this blog post is not correct/missing things... I have had difficulty downloading and then re-uploading images...  I'm having trouble creating links...

It is now 1:04 am...  I just have to hope this posts as is and I will correct any issues as soon as I can get to another computer.

Thank you for your patience.

Moira

Our talented sketch designer, Colleen, has provided this wonderful sketch for you to create with this week....  It lends itself to being a clean and simple card or simple enough that you can totally dress it up.

It always amazes me when our designers use the same image.  We were provided several images to play with, and both of our regular designers AND our guest designer chose to use
Molly Balloons 4.  This was NOT done on purpose LOL!
