Have You Ever Made Something Ugly?

Well, I definitely have and on more than one or two or more occasions.  And guess what, that was the case for this week's sketch challenge at Create with Connie and Mary.  My first take on this very cool and sleek sketch had been hit so hard with an ugly stick it was only worthy of the round file!

So, I was off and running to make a much better card and after I felt my finished project turned out kind of cute.  I found myself using Sale-a-Bration products and a few leftovers from the Boutique Boxes Kit.  The sketch calls for a greeting in the bottom left corner, but I opted for a blank card and stamped the border image from the Madison Avenue stamp set.


There are some fabulous cards made by the Design Team at Create with Connie and Mary using this sketch as a guide.  Hop on over and check them out.  Also speaking of Connie and Mary don't forget that it is never too late to join the Spring Edition.  The projects this week have been totally unique and replicable.  Mine for tomorrow charming, quick, and sweet, literally sweet!  That's all I can say.  To see it you'll need to join us :0)

  6. I really like this...love the colors, the layout of the embellishments. I have to chime in with everyone else...you? Make something ugly? Not sure that's possible! Next time, I think you better show us the ugly so we have proof.
