Blogger's Challenge Sketch and CTD28!

This week's Blogger's Challenge is a sketch challenge. I'm having a little trouble linking the sketch here, but if you check one of the other members of the Blogger's Challenge group, I'm sure that they'll have it in their post. Just click on the link in my right sidebar. I actually created a card that is pretty close to the sketch for once though...lol! I didn't realize it until my blogging friend, LeAnne, pointed it out, but these are the colors for this week's Color Throwdown Challenge...Pink Pirouette, Riding Hood Red, and Chocolate Chip. What luck! Two challenges in one card! :D Here are all of the other details...I used the Stampin' Up set A Happy Heart along with their new Candy Lane Designer Series Paper. I actually paper pieced Ellie! This technique almost never happens for me...lol! My Nesties helped out with the large circle and the scalloped circle. My 1/2" punch and my tag punch were also used. A little silver swirl clip with a piece of Pink Pirouette ribbon and a couple of brads finish everything off. Sorry for the darker photo, but it's getting late here and I really wanted to post this on time. I wish you all a happy weekend! Thanks so much for stopping by...Toodles! :D
