It's Saturday, and that means a new sketch challenge is up at the Sketch Saturday Blog!
Cathy designed our lovely sketch this week, and we have a new sponsor joining us...
... and she is offering 3 digi sets to this weeks random winner!
I went pretty clean and simple with my card this week. I fell in love with this cute turtle as soon as I saw it. He is this months FREEBIE from Digistamp Boutique! I colored him up with Copics, and paired him with some BoBunny Double Dot papers. The Five Point Flower Die is from C.C. Designs, and is topped with one of the new Sparkly White Gumdrops from Your Next Stamp. The sentiment from is from the Lawn Fawn set, So Much to Say, and I thought it was fitting for this happy little turtle! :)

Cute Card Thursday - It's A Wild World
Just Sing It!
SURPRISE!!!
It's New Release Day at Your Next Stamp! For this month's release we are doing things just a little differently... instead of the usual blog hop, you can see all the Design Team projects over on the YNS Blog. You'll also want to head over there to leave a comment for your chance to win a stamp set of your choice!
For my card today, I used a new clear stamp set, Ellie Loves to Sing. I thought this cute sheet music paper from the BoBunny Love Letters pad was a perfect match for Ellie. My daughter Abi loves to sing, and a singer is one of the many things she wants to be when she grows up! So, I've colored Ellie with Copics to look like Abigail (minus the glasses!) and I added a couple of Black Gumdrops to embellish the corner of the card. I'm thinking I need to find a stamp or die cut that I can use to make glasses on some of these cute characters! :)

Sketch Saturday #301
Thanks to everyone who hopped along the Sketch Saturday Blog Hop last week... be sure to check out the winner's post to see if you were a lucky winner of our hidden candy!
It's time for another sketch, and this week's was desinged by Jen...
...and our generous sponsor, Bunny Zoe's Crafts, is offering up the prize!
I've been dying to ink up one of my new Tiddly Inks cuties, and figured I would take the opportunity to play along with this week's Tiddly Inks Challenge... GREEN. Well, my card is VERY green! I'm honestly not sure how I feel about it... it's a little more neon than I intended!
The image is from the Ellie Says Hi clear stamp set. I colored Ellie with Copics, and cropped her to fit into the Instant Camera Die from Lil' Inker Designs. I moved the placement of the embellishment on the sketch, so I could put the shamrock in Ellie's hand. She turned out pretty cute, but you might want to put on some shades...

YNS Fun Friday!
It's time for some more Fun Friday Inspiration over on the Your Next Stamp Challenge Blog!
Peggy has designed a great sketch for us to work with this month, and we have a lovely springy inspiration photo!
Use one, or combine the two! This month's prize is a $20 YNS Gift Certificate!
I took inspiration from the photo and the sketch for my card today, using this sweet Lilah image. She is colored with Copics, with grass drawn in beneath her feet, and clouds sponged behind her using the Puffy Cloud Die and Tumbled Glass Ink. Her flowers are colored to match paper from the Doodlebug Hello Spring 6x6 pad... it has those pretty pastel colors from the inspiration photo.
