This is my sketch challenge for Stamp TV. I thought last week was my last one, but I got to go one more week! Just a few layers vs last week's CAS sketch that I did.
I used GKD stamp set, Botanicals. As much as I dislike needing sympathy cards, I do like to have some in my stash. The font on this set is friendly, but elegant and is perfect for what I wanted. I used muted colors, as is appropriate and I have to say I am happy with this card. Once again, I also used GKD's FREE download paper. This stuff is so awesome as a card base - looks textured I just love that! Not a member of Stamp TV? Just register - it is free and filled with AMAZING stuff, along with terrific tutorials - all on video that Gina herself has created. Well worth the 2 minutes it takes to sign up.
Thanks for stopping by -

Both cards are wonderful, but kudos to you on that first one, sympathy cards are always so difficult to make, and you're right, we really should do them in advance, because you can't rely on your mojo when you've just heard that someone you know has died
Gorgeous dahling, gorgeous gorgeous! I have just the image for this challenge, I'll blow your mind and play this week LOL
I'm totally with you on needing to work on the time management arena, Vicki!! This Speedy Christmas card is the perfect way to meet Lois's challenge to use an animal in a die cut!! Great CAS card :)
Lovely sympathy card, Vicki. Love the soft tones and the silhouette image. That Speedy postage stamp is too fun LOL!
Beautiful cards!

Vicki, do you sleep???? LOL - just ask'n. You keep the creative juices running and blow us away with your sketches and your gorgeous creations.
I LOVE the sketch for this week at StampTV. I can't wait to play. Tonight's the Release Party, though....I'm going to be there.
Two fabulous creations, Vicki! Love the design and beautiful elegance of the first card. The Speedy creations is too cute! Another wonderful design!
Hey girlfriend these are both gorgeous. Looks like youve been busy creating. How are the coloring classes coming? I do hope you haven't given up on them. This is the first chance I've had to just check out everyones beautful blogs. I did a bunch of cards a month ago, scheduled them to post at the appropriate times then left town again. Went to my highschool class reunion then stayed with my sister for a few weeks. Didn't want to come home but it looks like Im here to stay till next spring now. Isn't it about time we get together again?
I love these two cards, but now I'm going back to check out the rest of your blog. Hugs, Mel
