Papertrey Ink 11th Anniversary - Day 1 (Sketch Challenge)

The month we've all been waiting to help Papertrey Ink celebrate their 11th Anniversary. Where has the time gone? It's always exciting to see what's new and participate in the variety of challenges and contests for 10 days in February. 

Our first challenge was to choose one of the great sketches provided to create a project. The sketch I chose belongs to Dawn, who we've been praying for (and still are) before and after her small intestine transplant in DC. 


This is the year of milestone birthdays for friends and family members. My dear hubby's family has lots of longevity in his family. One of his Mom's two sisters still living will be 100 on February 28, and she got her driver's license renewed last year for five more years.  (Yes, she still drives, just not on freeways anymore). She certainly deserves a special card!






Thanks for stopping by, and I really do appreciate your comments.

What a wonderful take on the sketch. The scallops are a perfect detail and I love the pop of black with all the color.

It’s not very often that we get to make a card for a one hundred-year-old! Fabulous!! Beautiful flowers and lovely, stenciled background. I’m sure your aunt will love it!

I love this card, Kathy and she will too. I love the bold rich colors contrasted with the soft background. Yes, that land-mark age needs to be highlighted!

Kathy, this is so beautiful with the pretty colors. So nice to see flowers again. And yes, Warm regards is very easy to stamp.

This is really gorgeous! The bouquet looks great against the design of the stencil.
