~My mission … since yes, I did accept it (breathe, Self, breathe ..) … was to create a card following this sketch drawn by my all-time-favorite, dear-to-me stamper & daughter, Jessica Witty! Isn’t it a cool sketch? Pssssst! It’s also found within the pages of the pictured Go to Sketches magazine, along with many more sweet sketches & inspiration! Jessica has invited 5 friends to use her sketch for the hop today … and I feel mighty blessed to be participating. Thank you for the sweet invitation, Jess!
It was easy-peasy to follow this sketch for my 4.75″ square creation. Basically, it was “ready … set … done”!
You’ll want to be sure to visit the rest of the blog hop stampers … you’re going to love, love, love the inspiration in store for you along the way today! *** Cool Note Here *** Comments left on each blog will give you a chance to win your own brand-spankin’-new copy of Go-To Sketches!
