My Sweet Sketch Wednesday "Oops" Card ~

I know it's hard to believe, but I didn't follow the directions carefully and this is the Sweet Sketch Wednesday card I made BEFORE I realized it was supposed to be a Color Challenge too! Oops! :) Thankfully, I realized what I had done before I sent it to Arlana or she would have had to scold me! Sooo, if you read the previous post with my "Hot Diggity Dog" card, it was created with the same sketch as this one, but using the correct challenge colors.

I'm really happy with the way this card turned out, so thought I would just go ahead and show it to you and tell you what I did! : ) This stamp set is one of my new favorites ~ Thoughts and Prayers by Stampin Up!
Speaking of SU, I use to be a hobby demonstrator and now they are tempting me back with the special offer they have going for the mini starter kit! I *love* the company and thoroughly enjoy being creative with all the awesome products, I just don't care for the "sales" part of it. What do to?! {Any feedback from current demonstators would be appreciated.}

Just got home from work a few minutes ago and waiting for MW to get home for dinner. I think it's going to be a quick burger on the grill tonight! ...after our favorite salsa-avocado & chips appetizer and "beverage". CHEERS! ;)

Gorgeous!! I say if you would use the discount go for it!! I am a demo mostly for the discount since I don't hold many workshops. You can always get friends to help meet your minimums.
