Week 45 at Sketch Saturday!!

A lovely good morning to you all!!

It's Saturday and so that to me means SKETCH SATURDAY!! It is already week 45 and this week is hosted by my lovely Design Team friend Tracie! Next to being very talented Tracie is also a very sweet person, so sweet in fact that for this challenge she herself is giving away two super cute Penny Black stamps!! Now how sweet is that? Check out the Sketch Saturday blog for further details.

Now onto Tracie's (pink :) ) sketch: Isn't that lovely? I loved working with this one. I decided to use the last stamp from the Pink Cat Studio Sweet Pea Plate 2 that I hadn't used yet... the Cowboy baby. This image could of course be used very well for a little girl but I wanted to do a boys card so I tried to keep the card a bit manly. Here goes:

As you can see I used a sentiment for the flower on the sketch (this sentiment is also in the Sweet Pea set) and I've used this gorgeous... how do you call it?... ribbon that I got in a Card-Art kit instead of the scallopses on the sketch. Here is a close up of the paper pieced baby.

I hope you like it!!
This week we are joined by the very talented Brocelaine as our two week Guest Designer. Welcome to the team Brocelaine!! Can't wait to see your creations. Be sure to check her blog and don't forget to check out the card from my Design Team buddies!!
Have a wonderful weekend everybody!!
