What a week over at the Create with Connie and Mary Occasions Mini Edition! We have been creating using all the products in the Sale-A-Bration catalog (even the So Much to Sale-A-Brate Digital CD used in My Digital Studio) this past week and all of the Design Team members had such FABULOUS and SUPER CREATIVE ideas!

Ok, on to this week's Saturday challenge, it is a sketch challenge. This is a challenge for our subscribers to join in and every time they do they are entered to win a $75 Stampin' Up! merchandise gift certificate and a FREE registration to Create with Connie and Mary Summer Mini Edition!

Here is what I came up with. Have I told you that I LOVE My Digital Studio? It is so versatile. What do you do if you do not own the actual stamp set that you really want to use? I pull out the So Much to Sale-a-Brate Digital Content CD (that you can get FREE from the Sale-A-Bration catalog) and print out the images that I want to use!! That is what I did for this card.

I printed out the images on Naturals White card stock I wanted from the Sweet Summer and So Happy for You stamp sets, colored them in, punched them out and added them to my card! I guess you could call this a hybrid card! :)

If the image lines look like they are a little thicker than they should be that is because they are! After I printed them out I traced them using the little side of an Early Espresso marker to give it just a little bit of a different look, I kind of like it for this card.

I like the way this card came together with all the different elements and details!

Be sure to head over to the Create with Connie and Mary site to check out the other Design Team Members cards using this sketch this week. While you are there make sure you check out their blogs as well!
