I didnt forget the Saturday Sketch I just got caught up in the shopping I did yesterday, and was busy “playing” so didnt get to post it. Then, I spent some time with the family today. Didnt want to upset them so had to do my MOMMY duty.
Anyway better late than never right?
My Peeps, My Friends
So here it is! Do ya love it? I think its so cheery! Just what I was going for. Love when an idea on paper “works” in reality.
Here is the original sketch.
This layout is especially great for those smaller images you may have collecting dust or tag style stamps. I used my stamps from Green Grass for this one. They are Lil Monsters and Card Greetings . You can also view my card here
The American Crafts ribbon helped me get inspired! I love attaching ribbon with brads, onto a card. Its “different” you know what mean. PLUS its great use of those scraps.
My colors are real red, pumpkin pie, chocolate chip and cool caribbean.
Used my prismacolor markers to color the image. I thought the birdie looked like he was lookin at the other birdie. I don’t know! I just like tha layout and overall execution of this. Of course, I used my Sprite Primas. If you dont have ANY of these you are CRAZY! They are awesome! Love them. The brads are by SEI.
So I hope you get to try the challenge. If so please link it here so I can view it and comment.
Try using your ribbon to inspire your colors. Id LOVE to see what you come up with.
Thanks for playing.

Hi Lauren
Love the ribbon you have used, the colours are fantastic. I’ve sort of taken up your challenge. This is a link to my blog where I have posted a card I made with the colour of the ribbon being the starting point.

I also loved the embossing folders you used on the baby cards. I have found some on the Australian ebay and hopefully they will be coming my way soon! (Not a lot of stock is carried by crafting stores here, so it’s shop at ebay or nothing, LOL)
