Hello Everyone! Narelle here with this weeks sketch. I've gone circle mad and thrown 4 at this sketch for you to try. A few of us have gone with florals but you can get creative and choose another image/shape that works for you. Have fun with them!

Winners for Sketch 727

To our dear crafty friends, something has gone terribly wrong with our Linky tool this week and many of your cards were dropped from our gallery.  Sometimes technology can be so frustrating and have unintended results. Thank you for the notes you left us telling about the problem.  We felt we should skip choosing our team favorites and just let you know that ALL of you are amazing.  Every week, we love what you share!  We are hoping to have this repaired for next week so we can continue on as usual.  Thanks so much for your understanding. 


Join us tomorrow for a new sketch from Narelle!

Winners for Sketch 726

The Clean Team has chosen their Princesses for you this week and Karren has chosen the Queen: 

Laurie from Created by Laurie



A big thank you to everyone who took some time to play along with my sketch.  I loved seeing all the tags, and variations of tags, in the gallery.  I've been on a bit of a vintage kick in my card-making lately, so Laurie's gorgeous, clean card with a vintage feel really caught my eye!  The torn patterned paper with the texture behind work so beautifully together. Congratulations, Laurie, you are this week's Queen of Clean. 

Join us tomorrow for a new sketch from Michele!

Sketch #726 A Sketch by Karren

Hi, it's Karren here and I am your sketch hostess this week.  I love the look of tags on cards but very rarely remember to actually use a tag element on my cards. So I selfishly designed this sketch to force me to break out the tag dies.  Of course, you don't have to use a tag - anything similar would work.  Most of all we just want you to have some fun, crafty time!

Thank you so much for turning my sketch into so many beautiful cards! I had a great time browsing the gallery but a hard time choosing just one. Maria's wonderful CAS watercolor caught my eye. I love this simple artsy design. Congratulations, Maria, you are this week's ueen of clean.
