Sketch Tuesday with Skipping Stones Design


Happy July everyone! It's the first Tuesday of the month so we all know what that means! It's Skipping Stones Sketch Tuesday We have a new sketch artist and guest designer this month, please help me welcome the amazing Kim Kesti of Papercrafts as our Sketch Artist and the wonderful Dina Kowal as our Guest Designer. Make sure to spread some love! :)

Kim created such a fun sketch for us to use this week and I took the opportunity to play with two of my older stamp sets, Dandelion Dreams and Healing Wings. I used quite a few spellbinders dies and some gorgeous Mica/Metallic paper from the Paper Temptress, Amethyst and Quartz to really make the card shine.

Prizes!
The winner of this weeks challenge gets a $10 gift certificate to Skipping Stones! Make sure to add your card to Inlinkz and play along!

Hopped to your blog from Marlene, as you are a Peggy and I am a Peg too I just got curious, by the way the Feedjit thingee is wrong I am from Worcestershire not Nuneaton, I wonder why it gets it wrong? I am 50 miles from there!
