Hi everyone! I hope you're all having a great week and I hope you're ready for another fabulous sketch from Taylor! I was really feeling like my mojo had gone on a tropical vacation and couldn't come up with anything for this sketch, so do you know what I did? I took inspiration from this card that I made the other day! I loved the colors and the DP so it made this card so much easier!
I used the new set from Taylored Expressions called Celebrate Life. I hadn't yet inked up this beautiful leaf and thought it would be perfect for this sketch. As you can see from the sketch, I changed the circle to an oval. The sentiment was cut out with a Spellbinders Tag Trio Die. The ribbon is Papertrey Dark Chocolate Satin and the DP is Nook & Pantry by Basic Grey.
For more inspiration, don't forget to check out the amazing samples from the sketch team:
Very pretty Jackie. I love how the one small change from small circle to larger oval gives a whole different look to the sketch.

This is so beautiful Jackie. You are the sewing Queen Guru. I have always admired your beautiful sewing. Love this card.
Mercy and I went to see the movie. How many times have you watched it already? Awesome, right? I just wanted to reach through that screen and take Edward home with me but I would of had to fight Mercy over him and she would have beat my a@&. LOL
