Here's the sketch we'll be working with. This is meant for a long card that will fit a #10 business size envelope. General measurements are 7 1/2" x 8 1/2" for a finished card that measures 3 3/4" x 8 1/2" - your card doesn't have to be this size to enter. In fact, I'd love to see someone re-proportion this size to be a standard size card.
Our first card is from our Featured Stamper, Gini Cagle. What a yummy gingerbread house image and I love the felt gingerbread men that she used as one of the panels on the sketch. This image can be found here, it's part of an adorable set that is perfect for Christmas cards or gift tags.
This is Sheri's card and it's so beautiful. Black and white cards are so elegant and this is just perfect for a Sympathy card - so classy! All the embossing is just the right texture for this card, too. This image is freebie at MyGrafico and you can get it here.
Next up is Joni's card and it's another simple and very elegant card. The black and yellow really compliment each other and the dp is perfect. The embossing just adds so much texture and beauty.
Tammy's card uses an adorable image from The Greeting Farm and there is so much pattern and color going on that it just makes you smile and feel all happy inside!
Theresa used a very lovely image from Inkadinkadoo - I think it's very eclectic and very cool! The Fall colors are so warm and inviting and all the bling. Such a cool card!
Finally here is my card. I used the same image that Sheri did and I really like when this happens because then we're able to share with you the versatility in these images. I used a mat stack that I've had for a long time and I love the b/w options that were open to me. I used the paisley embossing folder and twill ribbon to add texture and then matted the focal point to a bit of light blue to set it off just slightly.Do you want to see what you're playing for? Here is the adorable set I have sitting here waiting for the lucky random winner.
I LOVE this digi-stamp set. I've been trying to convince the girls at the MYG challenge blog that we need to use this one and so far they've not taken me up on it, so when Burca at MyGrafico asked me what I wanted for the prize - this one got picked! Love it!!
Now here's what you have to do... go make a card or project with the sketch and then come back here and link it up in Mr. Linky and leave a comment. Then you go on over to the MyGrafico Challenge Blog and link up there, too, for a chance to win a different set. Double chances!! Whoo-hoo!!
