Winners For Sketch 242!

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


The Queen of Clean: Vicki from It's A Stamp Thing


Thank you to everyone who played along with my sketch.  I've chosen Vicki as my Queen this week. I totally fell in love with her gorgeous card. The layered flower is a striking addition and the stencilled background is a great touch.  I also love her colour choices and the gold glimmer strip sets off the flower perfectly.  Congratulations, Vicki, you are our Queen of Clean!




Please come back tomorrow for a new sketch from Amy!

Hi, it's Karren here and I am your hostess this week!  As is my usual style, I've come up with a pretty CAS sketch :)  I decided on this sketch because I wanted to challenge myself to try partial die-cutting and this sketch will work for that technique.  So, if you feel like it, add some partial die-cutting to your card this week.  No pressure though - just have fun with the sketch!
