Inkspirations Sketch Challenge #21…..
Hey folks,
Sorry that this post is late. I had a terrible day yesterday, which you just DON”T WANT to ask about! I will share about that another day when I have processed it a little more 
The day I had planned just turned to mush so now I am playing catch up. I am not going to do a winning round up for the last challenge this week. I am sure you still can enjoy visiting everyone’s fabulous blogs and viewing their creations.
So here is the newest sketch for you this week!
Now this card I have made is using a brand new stamp set! It actually was a special gift from a very special lady that i received in the mail this week. Here is what I received from the gorgeous Dawn McVey!!!! It had beautiful Dawn hand stamped original, and her beautiful Delightful Dahlia stamp set. What a sweetie I know I am going to really enjoy this stamp, as it kinda reminds me of the BOUF! lol..
Here is my sample for you all:
Such a pretty flower! I have stamped the large flower three times and coloured, cut, and layered them. I have added the glitter and the pearl for extra bling.The greeting is also from Papertrey Ink, the Mega mixed messages set. I have added Chocolate chip satin ribbon, paper piercing, and the Chocolate brads (SU) to dress it up as well.
Here is the inspiration from the Design Team!
Louise Ryan - Guest Designer
Want to play along? - here are some guidelines.
If you would like to play along, all you need to do is follow the directions:
1. Make your creation following the challenge ie, sketch, colour, or inspiration image.
2. Load your creation up onto your blog or a public viewing forum like Splitcoast Stampers, with a direct link back to the post on this website, so that others viewing the post will know where the challenge has come from, and it is courtesy to do so.
3. Then come back to this post so that you can add your name and link in the Mr. Linky!
You have until the Thursday the 22nd April midnight to get your entries linked.

I hope you get to play along and i look forward to seeing your creations!

Hi Keesh
This is such a wonderful sketch, thank you so much for the inspiration. And I just love your card, that set is too gorgeous for words. That flower must have taken a bit of work, but it’s so worth it, it’s gorgeous.
Enjoy the week ahead.
Love

Thanks for the sketch, Keesh! And the PTI goodies are so yummy!!
Lucky you! And yay for the BOUF! I’ll add this to my quarterly PTI order/wish-list!!
Hope you’re having a super weekend, I’m going to have a shot at your sketch this week, it looks like fun. xx Amanda
HI Keesh,
oooh you lucky girl to get a PTI pressie
I must admit it reminded me of the “bouf” too the first time I saw it on Dawn’s blog. You made it the star of your card - love the layering and glittered edges. Thanks for the great sketch too - had fun with it this week!
Love Kim
Had fun with this week’s challenge. Thanks Keesh! Been enjoying them. Hope you are having a good week after Friday.
Woo hoo! On a roll with your challenges, Keesh! Have had fun! xxx
Hey Keesh,
Love your card, I havn’t thought of that stamp set since it retired even tho I keep it. I think you just inspired me to get it out…..lol….and trust me I need some inspiration. I have finally got to play along with one of your challenges. Hope all is well with you and your family….Take care

Thanks Keesh. Another great challenge. I hope to participate in a few more. Oh by the way I had to use the sketch upside down it worked better with my card.

Hi Keesh
Thank you for another great challenge & for such a beautiful inspiration piece.
Helen
I loved this sketch and it was just perfect for what I needed to make.
Your layered flower is stunning! Thanks for the neat sketch too.
By the skin of my teeth, hehe. Thanks for this challenge - another card completed and ready for dispatch, lol xx
I LOVE the flower. Very beautiful card!!
Hi Keesh, I love what you achieved with your sparkly dahlia! It’s hard to believe the flower is made from paper. Excellent work!
For the challenge - My card’s photo is such a disappointment - I have to work out another way to upload. Thanks, Lu. xx
Hi Keesh, I have just found another way to upload my photos instead of scanning them in. #36 is a much better photo for the slide show that you do at the end of the challenges. Thanks. Lu xx
