Winners For Sketch 216!

The Clean Team has chosen the Princesses for you this week and our hostess Rita has chosen the Queen!


The Queen of Clean : Holly from Holly's Hobbies

It looks like my funky sketch may have scared off a few folks but Holly took it and ran with it.  Her card is just gorgeous!  I love the watercoloring and love all the neutrals!  The twine on the side as the scalloped layer works perfectly with the rest of the card as well.   Such a fantastic masculine card!  Congrats, Holly!




Please come back tomorrow for a new sketch from Linda!

Winners For Sketch 215!

The Clean Team has chosen the Princesses for you this week and our hostess Jen has chosen the Queen!


The Queen of Clean : Diane from It's All About the ART!

Once again the gallery was full of gorgeous cards!  You all make it so hard to pick a favorite!  I've chosen Diane's card because I'm partial to Christmas cards in non-traditional colors and it's full of sparkly snowflakes!  I love the vellum banner and how the subtle stripes are a perfect foil for those beautiful snowflakes.  Congratulations, Diane, you are the Queen of Clean!




Please come back tomorrow for a new sketch from Rita!

Well, you continue to fill the gallery with astonishing creations and we cannot even tell you how thrilled that makes us week to week!  Jen T here with this week's sketch.  I created this one with simplicity in mind.  For those in the US, this week marks the Thanksgiving holiday and I know that means lots of travel, food, family and coordination.  I wanted the challenge to bring you a bit of calm if you get the chance to play!  Enjoy the inspiration of the team and I hope to see you join us!
