Last week's sketch was a bit hard but this week is really easy so I hope you are gonna play along. I actually had to change one of mine to a regular card instead of a square card and flip it so that the circle was on the other side. Here is the original sketch......
And my first card. This card is 4.25 by 4.25. I love this size card. I had to make a non Valentine card with this one, cuz I am almost Valentined out already!
The background is the floral background stamp embossed in black on Basic Grey. Love the look. And then I added just a few touches of pink. There is a lot of raised areas on this one.
Stamps: To Have and To Hold
Paper: Basic Grey, Basic Black, Whisper White, Regal Rose
Ink: Basic Black
Other: mini pearls, primas, Martha Stewart markers, copics, circle punches, scallop circle punch, clear gel pen on glasses, and ribbon from a Christmas gift.
And now for my second card, because of the way Cupid was facing I had to flip the sketch.
Stamps: Will You Be My Valentine (Storage Units Ink and More)
Paper: Riding Hood Red, Pink Pirouette, Basic Black, Whisper White, Bella Rose dp
Ink: Basic Black
Other: sm scallop blade, white gel pen, mat pack and paper piercer, glitter gel pen, Colluzle, Nestabilities, The Paper Studio Rub On, faux brads, ribbon, Copics, black marker
I would love to have you play along. There are no real rules, just have fun. After you make a card post it on line using the key word TSSC53 and then come on back here and leave me a comment and add your link to Mr Linky. Thanks, I can't wait to see what you come up with.

I knew right away I wanted to use the ALWAYS set from SU! for this sketch---but I did not think I would not get around to finally finishing it until now--Saturday afternoon. Oh well it's up and ready for viewing.
Sure love your cards Mary Jo--you do such great work!
