Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge #156

I needed more birthday cards. So I strolled through a few blogs to find a sketch that I loved, and found one on the Sweetest Thing blog. Karen has a great sketch challenge on Sundays. Here's this week's sketch

My card is a bit of a hybrid since I didn't want to use those wonky Arch thingees. I have them but find that they don't layer nicely. Oops, there's my obsessive need for perfection showing again. So instead of spending hours staring at (and grumping) about a uneven card, I just used ovals instead.

I love how Stampin Up's "Unfrogettable" set goes perfectly with this Inky Impression stamp.

Don't forget that there is a challenge going on on the Inky Impressions challenge blog . The challenge this week is to create your own embellishment.

Have a great day
