More Fun with Sketches

I am still working with sketches this week! Or I should say, with ONE sketch. Twilight Tuesday’s Dani came up with an awesome sketch for the latest Twilight Tuesday Sketch Challenge, and here’s the second card I’ve made with it.  

This one is a kid card and was SO fun to make.  The bright colors make for a good time!

Here’s a look at the entire card:

And a closer look at the glittery little lion:

There is nothing simple about this card; I just kept embossing and layering until I could fit no more on there!

Thanks so much for visiting!

A new Twilight Tuesday Sketch Challenge was issued this week, and it’s a great sketch to work with!  Here is one card I made using the sketch, and I’m just about to make a second with it as well.
