Magical Monday - Sketch

This week I bring you the challenge for Paper Cupcakes which is a sketch. You can find the challenge at the Paper Cupcake's Challenge Blog; There's Magic In The Air.

This week I present you with two sketches so you have a choice. Pick one of the sketches found at Paper Cupcake's Challenge Blog; There's Magic In The Air and then use it. You can flip it, rotate it or stretch it, just as long as you can still see the original sketch on your card.

The image "Margarita Cupcake" is a freebie for 48 hours and after that you can find it in the store. So, make sure you stop by and snag it and while you'll there why don't you show a little appreciation for the freebie and play along with the challenge as well. I colored my image with colored pencils and colored the cupcake holder to match my ribbon. Went with summery bright colors and added some stickles to the icing and lime. Then added a cute little flower and some rhinestones.  It was a pretty quick card since I was following a sketch, which is why I love sketches.


Well, the heat is about to kill me over here, today was a whopping 106 and our air is having a hard time keeping up with the outside. With our air on and fans going in some of the rooms we still have 84 degrees in our home!! Although I still will take this over a cold winter. Well, that is it for me today. Going to keep this simple and short. I have a busy next few days and then I am off to escape on a little rendezvous with Eric. So, thanks for lurking by and have a joyful week!

So beautifully done. Love the color combo, the glitter and the gems. A cute sentiment, too. Hope you and Eric have a wonderful time.

Nina,
Pretty card and awesome coloring! I love the sparklies on the icing and lime and the pretty stones scattered are a wonderful touch. Hope you and Eric are enjoying your getaway!
