Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge #59

Happy Monday (or shall I say Sunday Night). I am really loving the sketch for this week, so easy to work with. I actually made two cards in a relatively short amount of time. You know I love that! Here is the sketch....


And here is my first card. I used the new set called Animal Crackers from the Stampin Up catalog. It is a really fun and cute set. It was perfect for this layout.



Stamps: Animal Crackers
Paper: SoSaffron, Chocolate Chip, Whisper White, Bashful Blue, So Saffron and Bashful Blue DP's
Ink: Chocolate Chip
Other: Copics, buttons, saffron and chocolate brads, wide chocolate chip ribbon, word window punch, circle punch, MS marker, thread.


The next card is much simpler and uses the new SAB set Polka Dot Punches. You can earn this set for free for the rest of this month! Ask me how.

Stamps: Polka Dot Punches, Really Retro
Paper: Certainly Celery, Bashful blue, So Saffron, Sahara Sand, Pacific Point, SAB dp
Ink: Pacific Point
Other: ribbon, heart punch

I sure hope you will play along this week--it really is an easy sketch to work with. If you play please remember to come on back here and leave a link on Mister Linky and a comment in the comments section so we can all see what you make. Also please remember to post a DIRECT link to your sample card and use the key word TSSC59! Hope you have a fabulous week!

I have been wanting to do this with this set since day one but kept forgetting. But when I was checking out the FS108 challenge this morning I seen a card with a row of frogs and for some unknown reason I thought of this so this is my card for that challenge--kind of. It looks nothing like the original. I changed EVERYTHING--whoops.

I do love how it turned out though
