Wow!!
December has arrived way too soon. I
missed out on the last week of November due to a tooth problem. I feel like I have been in a fog due to all
the pain meds. Feeling a bit better
today but I sure will be happy when I can eat solids again without being very
careful how I chew. Grrrr!!
Enough
about me. With the beginning of a new
month we also have a new challenge at Sparkle N Sprinkle Creative Challenges Blog. But first let’s reveal the winner
of the November Sketch Challenge. The
winner is ……Verna Angerhofer. Congratulations!! Head back to the Challenge Blog for details
how to collect your prize.
This
month we have another sketch challenge. This
means half the work is already done since you already have your layout!!
This
sketch is simple but has so many possibilities.
Let’s see what you can create!!
Post a link to your card at the SNS Creative Challenges Blog before December 31 at 8:00 p.m. ET and you might be the December winner.
Here
is a card to get you inspired. I used
Frosted Carmine and Black Suede Velvet Glitter on sticker paper to create this
lovely background.
This is enhanced with
dry embossing
and masking.
Go to our
Tips and Techniques here to see the Masking on Velvet Glitter Technique and
here to see the new Dry Embossing on Velvet Glitter Technique. The image is Bamboo Floral Vase, combined
with the Feel Better Soon sentiment, and layered on this sparkling background. Find the details of this card in the SNS gallery here.
Now
check out what my other fellow designers have created with this sketch at the
challenge blog.
