DECONSTRUCTED SKETCH Challenge

Hello and happy Thursday everyone. Are you ready for another awesome sketch for Jen's Deconstructed Sketch challenge. She has another beauty for us this week.


For my card today I am using an adorable new image called LULA BIG HEART from ALL THAT SCRAPS. I paired her with a new matching die called BIG HEARTS and a new AmyR sentiment set called HEART-Y SAYINGS.NOTE: The big heart she is holding is blank on the stamped image. I stamped my sentiment in the heart to make a love card. You can put whatever you would like in that heart :) I flipped the sketch sideways for my card. Here it is.






If you’d like to join us this week for Jen's sketch all you need to do is create a project using the above sketch as inspiration. There are no specific image requirements for this challenge. Upload your project to your blog or to an online gallery and link it back Jen's blog to Inlinkz. There is no time limit to play this week.
Be sure to hop around and check out what the rest of the Deconstructed Sketch Design Team has made!

Thanks for stopping by. Good luck to everyone. I will see you tomorrow with another sneak peek.
