Several of my crafting friends from the 12 Kits of Christmas swear by Waltzing Mouse Stamps. One of their Mischeif Makers, Renee, let us all know about the 100th sketch challenge going on. I don't own any WMS stamps yet (notice the yet) so I asked Suzanne if I could borrow her's. Of course, she complied :) I created this card for the challenge:
Here is the sketch for this week:
You can check the sketch out for yourself, here. There are some great prizes! The balloon is paper pieced with Lillybee Designs paper. The clouds, sentiment, balloon, and little girl all came from the same set. The cardstock is PTI.
The scalloped border punch is from SU.
I have someone special in mind to send this card to. She's had a tough week this week, and I know this card will make her smile :) (Can't say who it is since she looks at my blog!)
Jessica--this card is SO YOU!! I love everything about it. You have such a distinctive style, and that style is darling personified. I think of that little heroine as you, flying over to cheer someone up.
