YaY! It's time for another one of Mercy's Tuesday Sketch Challenges!
When in need of a card for a dear friend going through a difficult time, the "Thoughts and Prayers" set from Stampin Up is ideal! And when you have a terrific card sketch for inspiration, it makes for a winning combination!
The mega-talented designer of this layout is Mercy Kerin from Lord Have Mercy . She's been very busy creating one fabulous sketch after another. You're all invited to participate in her Tuesday Sketch Challenge . . . just hop on over to her blog for all the details! :)
Oh wait! There's more! Mercy has invited Shannan Tuebner from Shannan Tuebner Designs to be her "Guest Muse" for August. We're so excited to be working alongside Shannan, who is a Stamping *STAR*! You'll be amazed to see what she's done with this sketch . . . and all the other Muses' too . . .

The designer paper I've used on this card is "Fresh Print Apple" from Deja Views and I've combined it with Stampin Up old olive and orchid opulence cardstock. The rubber stamp is inked with SU watercolor markers and stamped on naturals ivory cardstock. The bottom border is a Martha Stewart punch. Can you believe I didn't add any stitching to this card?! I really wanted to, but then I decided it might be too much. (see my owl card in the last post ;)
Today I want to give a shout out to a few of my faithful followers who continue to bring a big *smile* to my face. Happy Hi to You All! Linzy, Debbie, Gail S, Gayle, Michelle, Stephanie, Jennifer, Julie, LeAnne, Katie, Linda, Mona, Mrs Fence, Nancy, Sheri, Judi, Tenia, Crystal, Mish, Tanh, Sue, Arlana, and last but not least...a Portland Granny! :) I'm glad you're enjoying my creations and my daily quotes too.
Smiles and Hugs Around!
~ Quote for Today ~
Sometimes it's important to work for that pot of gold.
But other times, it's essential to take time off and to make sure that your most important decision in the day simply consists of choosing which color to slide down on the rainbow.

Pam, when I first saw this card yesterday I went "WOW". Purple is my favorite color and has been since I was a little girl. I absolutely love it paired with this green. It's so bright and I just love bright!! Love the button treatment and the silk ribbon is beautiful. That SU set looks great the way you stamped it. The leaves look two-toned. Love that. Way to rock the sketch.
