The Craft's Meow November Sketch Challenge

Happy November everyone!  It's the beginning of the month, which means there's a new sketch challenge up at The Craft's Meow!  Here it is, a beautiful one by Nina B:


I flipped the elements a bit, and here's my take on it:


I just got this gorgeous pad of Basic Grey's Lucille papers, and pulled the colors from it.  I used TCM's Fly Free and Stitched Sentiments stamps, and added some lovely satin ribbon, ecru lace and some punched butterflies to the mix.  

You have the whole month of November to enter our challenge; the random winner gets to choose a set of TCM stamps of her choice!  You do NOT have to use TCM stamps to enter.  However, if you are the winner and you have used TCM stamps on your entry, you will not only receive your choice of a TCM stamp set, but also a coupon for 15% off another additional stamp set of choice to be used one time within 30 days!!

Can't wait to see what YOU create!

I'd like to enter this into the Basic Grey "Anything Goes" challenge.

Such beauty! Love the strip of lace going down one side. Not sure if I realized you are on the TCM team. Congrats! (I'm probably late in congratulating you; sorry!)
