A Spooky (or Not) Sketch for SUO Challenges

Gooood morning stampy friends!  I had to miss the last challenge at SUO Challenges because of my drama queen appendix going nuclear (I am recovering...very slowly), but I am ready for today's new challenge!


And it is...a sketch!


My teamie Tammy beat me to making a Halloween card using this sketch, and since I've been posting all the Hex-Travaganza cards this month (which I luckily have been making for almost a year so I had *something* to post while I recover) I thought I'd pivot and do something NOT spooky.  Here's my card:


I adore the Floral Charm DSP so I decided to feature it on today's card.  I chose the floral rose pattern and the Night of Navy pattern is on the flip side of the roses, so I cut a piece to the size I needed for the card front, then cut it into my four pieces and flipped over two of them so we see both patterns.  Then I took the scrap and fussy cut some more flowers to adorn the sentiment circle, and I also put some of those on the inside of the card (which I forgot to take a picture of).  So the only stamping is the greeting, which is a great one from Gathering Moments.  I thought about making another card with the Gathering Together DSP but then I had to take a nap instead.  Stupid appendix drama.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this sketch too and don't forget to upload your card at the SUO Challenges blog.  Whether you choose to make a Halloween card, something autumnal, or something else entirely, we'd love to see!

This is my most favourite paper pattern in that pack Christy and I've yet to cut into it - and now I still won't even if I play along with this challenge, as this card cannot be improved upon :-) So very pretty!
