Paper Crafting, Rubber Stamping, Scrapbooking, and more

Hey, sketch challenge fans--here's this week's sketch. For this week’s sketch, I did something that’s a little unusual for me—I included panels that aren’t straight. I tend to use straight lines in my paper crafting designs, so this sketch was a little bit of a stretch for me. But, it’s supposed to be a challenge, right?

I’m sure this week will be a busy one spent enjoying time with family and friends, but if you have a chance to play along—and/or want to try out any new crafting supplies you might have received for the holidays—please upload your card to the PCP gallery using the keyword sk122609 so I can add it to the album with the other creations based on this week’s sketch. I can't wait to see some other ideas using this sketch!

Now, on to my version of the sketch. I just love these cute Lollipop images from Stamping Bella and couldn't resist building my card around one of them.

Here, I used little Ella Lollipop as the focal image on my card. She’s colored with Copic markers and her clothing is paper pieced with pink cardstock. I thought about coloring her dress and bow with Copics, too, but figured that the polka dots might get blurry. Instead, I filled them in with a white gel pen for a crisp white color. I added a sparkly rhinestone at the center of her bow for a fun accent.

I kept the polka dot theme started on Ella's dress going on the other panels on the card. The darker pink panel is embossed with a polka dot embossing folder and so is the pale pink panel that covers most of the card base. I was going to stamp the sentiment on the circle at the base of the two tilted panels, but went with an embellishment instead. I placed a button-embellished pink satin bow on the layered circles, then stamped the sentiment on the side of the image panel. Too cute!

I love your card and I am ready to get back on a challenge. I have never done a challenge here but it is time for a first. I'm going to try to get this done before the deadline.
So glad you're going to join us, JoAnn! I'm looking forward to seeing what you create for the challenge. And, don't worry, there's no deadline for participating. You'll find a new sketch challenge posted here each Saturday.
