Believe it or not, it's time for another Sketch Challenge (PPA52) at Pals Paper Arts! I hope the sketch I designed for this week's challenge will inspire you to create something wonderful! I seem to be on a "flower kick" lately and I can't explain why, other than the fact that I really like them and they're fun to make! The cheerful flower featured on this get well card is composed of three layers quickly made using the new 2-3/8" Scallop Circle and Fancy Flower punches from SU. I used a 1" Circle punch and the Boho Blossom punch to create the flower's center and added a Rose Red button threaded with a sliver of Pear Pizzazz to finish it off! A simple sentiment accented with a small flower button completes the card!
Need more inspirational ideas before you give this sketch a try? Check out the cards created by the PPA Design Team and this week's Featured Artist, Pam Giudici! Make your card and post it at Pals Paper Arts via Inklinkz before 12:00 Noon CST on Tuesday, July 27th! Who knows? Maybe you'll be a Pals Paper Arts Artist Pick! You won't know until you try! I can't wait to see what you create!
