I hope you will find time this week to play along.  I am really liking this sketch this week--although I am not sure others will think it is as easy as some but that is what a challenge is all about right!  Are YOU  up to it???  Here is the sketch for this week. 






As per usual I am combining my card sample with the new challenge on Latenightstampers.  This wee myself and my team are challenging the group to create cards for kids.  This is in honor of Dr. Seuss's birthday!  Should be a fun week over there.  Come on over and play along.  Here is my card.


Isn't it so cute.  I am really loving how it turned out!  The tree branches are hand drawn and the leaves are from the sizzlet die.  I love how he is holding the look who's turning 7 sign.  

Can't wait to see what you guys create with this sketch.  Should be a fun week!
