Two in One!

I've combined Keesh's Colour Inkspiration challenge #9 and this weeks Stamp with Us sketch challenge in one card. I've also taken Keesh's suggestion of making a male card and have used an old favourite set of mine - Voila!

Stamps: Voila, sanded background Ink & card: Ruby red, baja breeze & basic grey Other: Urban oasis & urban garden (hat) dsp, ruby red brads, nestabilities, paper piercer & mat pack.

Sketch Challenge by Makeesha

I expect you already have, but if not and you are looking for an abundance of creativity check out Makeesha's blog where she always seems to be 'bursting' with great cards and ideas.

Anyway, she also sets weekly challenges and this week I have played along and had fun in the process! You can see her sketch challenge here. In fact it is such a versatile LO that I made two cards and have ideas for lots more...!

Stamp sets: Ahoy Matey, It's Your Birthday. Card: bashful blue, pumpkin pie, whisper white. Paper: Jersey shore DSP. Ink: Brilliant blue, black. Other: Bold brights brads, cutter kit, 1 1/4" circle punch.

And this is my other card:

Stamp sets: Voila!, Happy Everything. Card: Real Red, Wild Wasabi, More Mustard. Ink: Black stazon, real red, going grey, more mustard, tempting turquoise, wild wasabi. Paper: East Coast Prep. Other: Red 5/8" grosgrain ribbon, bold brights brads, wide oval punch, aquapainter.

Thanks for the inspiration Makeesha!
