Sketch #6 at Graphicat

Well here it is time for another Graphicat Sketch #6 
Worked on this Card at a Crop Cheri hosted for her sons School Trip..
What a blast we all had or I think everyone at our table sure did.  

So here is the one I did for this challenge..

I turned the sketch 90 degrees to fit with my new image (stamp I got from Graphicat)
Pictute could be better but it was hard getting a clear shot all done in pale pinks and peaches.

Now I did get some other cards done as well.. I managed to finish 6 cards yes I counted twice
except for the insides..
Not bad for only taking part in the one day of the crop and I had so much fun as well.. Meet some
new people..laughed a lot.. ate far to much.. got a friend into making cards..Now what more could
you ask for.. Below is a picture of 3 of the cards I got done..

Now granted they are all the same image but I only had one precolored before the crop.. I have another one as well but won't be putting it up till later as it is for another challenge..

Thanks for droping by..
Take Care all and have a great day..
