{sketch} cardabilities

Cardabilities has a great sketch up this week!

Here is my card:  XO

I combined this challenge with a "cardstock only" challenge Bev is having at My Sketch World.   I created the grid on my base with some mist and a plastic cross stitch canvas.  At the last minute I added some glitter to the end of my flower petals and it got all over so now it looks like the glitter exploded on the card!  :)  Live and learn, right?  Next time I will glitter before the flower goes on the card.  *laugh*

Thanks for a fun sketch Cardabilities and an equally fun challenge, Bev!

Happy Friday, friends!

  5. So pretty Jan - I love your clever misted grid background - speaking of grids, excellent guess on my blog ;) Can not see your glitter-tastrophe at all, can see it on the flowers, though, and it looks pretty. Did you make that flower with a scallop circle punch? Loving the shape.
