Sketch 66

Good morning!
Saturday again - that means brand new sketch!
We thought we'd add a little bit more layer and places for your embellishments on our sketch this week. Hope you'll like it!



We've been fortunate to be able to work with images from Little Paper Shop who is sponsoring us this week. For those of you who are not yet familiar with Little Paper Shop, here's a little info about them.



Little Paper Shop launched their company in April 2008 with 7 sets and 6 individual stamps, most of which are of masculine themes. Since then they have expanded their clear stamp line to include over 70 sets including their most popular {Little Cuties} line! They now stock a variety of digital images as well. LPS stamps are manufactured in the US using only high quality photopolymer. Each set is hand inspected to ensure you are receiving only top quality products.

LPS has been really generous with Card Patterns family - that includes YOU!

LPS will give a $20.00 store credit
to 1 lucky randomly picked winner. 

They are also offering a generous  
15% discount to all Card Patterns participants.
Simply enter CARD during check out.
Discount offer is valid only from today until June 5, 2010.

On to our Guest Designer for this week. We're excited to introduce you to

 (Always Creating)



Getting to know Ivanka: 
Hi, my name is Ivanka and I love to make cards.  And I love ribbon.  I can’t help myself from collecting more.  It’s gotten to the point where I have to sneak it in the house and pretend that I’ve had it for years…at least it’s easy to conceal.  I think I may need a 12 step program!
 
I’m so excited to have this opportunity to be a Guest Designer here at Card Patterns.  I live in Southern Ontario with my husband Steve, our two daughters Dana and Julia, and our little Schnauzer, Pepper.  I’m an RN and work part time in a busy outpatient clinic.
 
When I’m not working, doing taxi duty to two teenagers, walking the dog or doing laundry, you can find me happily creating in my new card studio.  It’s like therapy when I can spend time there.

Please click on Ivanka's name above to visit her blog and leave her some love!
Here's Ivanka's take on the sketch.
