A Sassy Cheryl Sketch Challenge

Dawn picked the challenge this week over at the Sassy Cheryls Challenge Blog, and it's a Sketch Challenge this week. I love sketch challenges. I am always amazed to see how you can take one sketch and create so many cards that look so totally different.
I chose this image from the Sassy Cheryl's Store called Dancing Day. I couldn't resist her, she's just so cute and she's doing one of my favorite things DANCING! She's colored with Copics, of course.

The papers are from a free kit called Shabby Mommy from Shabby Princess. I love the papers in this kit with the almost orange pink and the yellows. The flourishes are a Sissix die cut that I found on sale the other day at Michael's for a ridiculously low price. I couldn't pass it up now could I? The flower was a white daisy that I colored with my Copics to match the colors in my papers.

It sure feels good to have my challenge card made and blogged on Saturday instead of minutes before the Mr. Linksy closes on Mondays. Wonder if I can keep this up?

    Already on PCP, but definitely want to say it here, too:

    Shirley, your card is stunning :) Colorine is so smooth and colour combo and elements, all of it, really! Nice detail that pink oval ;) (Aren't Cheryl's images amazing?)
