Here is the sketch I am showcasing for the hop

 
This is MY take on the SKETCH


I am not a crad maker as such...I love my Layout and off the page stuff but have been trying a few cards of late.

This one is made from Pretty Little Studio Paper and lots of cool embelishments that I purchased from Handmade Halo    www.handmadehalo.com.au.

Its a Valentine Card as I thought that would be appropriate considering the time of year... I hope you like what I have done

    Your card is great, and I love that background paper you used! Your RAK is also something I'd love to win! Ok, back to the 'rules' - I am a follower now, and I have a few favourite embellishments I like to use with the top being BLING - any form of bling viz. glitter glue, sparkly gems, sparkly ribbons - suppose I'm a bit of a crow when it comes to this hehe.

    I haven't been much of a card maker either but I have a feeling that will change - for this month anyway! I am a follower and a LS member. And I think my favorite embellishment is flowers as I probably use them the most but I also really like adding a little bit of bling.

    Hi Mich. Its my first time visit here and I love it. I have become a follower here. Loving your sketch for the blog hop and your take on it is gorgeous, not to speak of the yummy candy. My favourite embellishment to use in my scrapbooking and cardmaking must be brads (split pins) as they come in such a huge variety of shapes, sizes and colours.
    Would love to see you over at www.desiref.blogspot.com in sunny South Africa.
