Wow!  Thanks to everyone who participated in playing with my sketch this week.  The creations were all incredibly beautiful.  Making only one choice is torture!   

I kept going back to Cindy's gorgeous Valentine.  First and foremost, the crisp, clean look was so appealing to me.  Added to that, the textures, colors and bling sealed the deal for me.  This card is so well organized and put together.   Congratulations, Cindy!  You're my pick for the Queen of Clean this week!

A big thank you to everyone who played along with us this week.  Once again the gallery was full of fantastic cards and lots of inspiration.   

Narelle is consistently one of my favorite stampers and I was just blown away by her card this week.  I love blue and this card is the perfect showcase of blues.  From the beautifully shaded poppies to the gorgeous Midnight Muse ribbon, every detail is perfect.  Congratulations, Narelle, on being the Queen of Clean for the week!

Hey there!   I hope everyone survived Thanksgiving.  It's Rita here with a fun new sketch for you this week.   I see banners everywhere these days, so I thought it might be fun to add a few to our cards this week.  It's a good way to use up a few pieces of those scraps we all hoard save.  The rest of the card is up to you.  Layer it up, go CAS, and add whatever shape inspires you.  Keep it clean and have fun!

A big thank you to everyone who played along with us this week.  Once again the gallery was full of fantastic cards and lots of inspiration.   

It was a lot of fun to see Sue's Valentine in shades of pink and brown in the gallery this week.  The embossed hearts background is the perfect complement to the striped and polka dotted patterned paper.  And her fun scalloped heart just sparkles with a tiny rhinestone!  Congratulations Sue, you are my pick for Queen of Clean this week!
