Jen Timko here with this week's sketch.  It is going to be hard to top last week's tag cards!  Such a wonderful gallery!  I love the idea of this long center panel and this seemed like a great way to use DSP and still have a place to stamp.  The little banners are just for fun!  I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.  As always, some amazing inspiration from the team:

Winners for Sketch 96

The Clean Team has chosen the Princesses for you this week and Amy has chosen her Queen!


The Queen of Clean:  Amy Koenders

Label Something Tag a Bag

I truly enjoyed looking at all of the creations in the gallery this week.  I loved looking at the variety of styles and stamps.  In the end, I found I kept coming back to Amy Koenders' fun gift sack.  I love the chevrons on the sack and the punched chevrons on the border.  The embossing and stamping on the tag is gorgeous, and the bow is so fun.  I think the most striking and creative part to me though is the use of rhinestones placed randomly on the bag.  Love it!  Congratulations, Amy, on being the Queen of Clean this week!  






Be sure to come back tomorrow for a new challenge from Jennifer Timko!

The Queen of Clean:  Karren J

Thank you all for playing along with my sketch this week! I thoroughly enjoyed checking out everyone's gorgeous cards.  I've chosen Karren's fabulous card for Queen.  I just love the contemporary feel to her card with the colours she's chosen and the creative way she added ink to her embossing folder to use as a stamp to match the MDS papers - love it! Congratulations, Karren, on being the Queen of Clean this week!

Hello there!  Linda Suarez here, your host for this week's challenge.  I really like the trend I've seen with sentiments stamped on a slant so I kept my sketch very simple and on a slant. I hope you like it and I can't wait to see what you do with it!
