and my card:




 
 
Flower and leaf stamps from a local craft shop, Great Impressions.
Daisy die from MFT.
 
 
 
Next up is the sketch over at the Pals Paper Arts Blog.
 




This is my take on the sketch:




 
 
Flower and flourish dies from MFT.  Sentiment banner dies from Verve.
 
 
 
 
 
Thirdly my card for the Feb week 3 sketch over at the Viva la Verve Sketches Blog.
 



This is my card:


 
 
 
Flower stamp and die from Verve.  Crosses stamp from Verve.
Sentiment banner dies also from Verve.
Leaf stamp from a local craft shop, Great Impressions.
 
 
Patterned paper on all three cards from Teresa Collins.
Rings and frames cut with Spellbinders nesties.
Afrikaans sentiment on all cards saying: 'Congratulations'.
 
 
 
Apologies for the long post - I tried to keep it as short as possible!!!!
 
 
 
Thanks for popping in and have a lovely weekend!!!

    Please do not apologize for anything as you treated us to some pretty awesome eye candy! I love how you repeated the sentiment vertically on the first card! Sweet bits of DP and cool embellies on your second card and a GREAT mix of colors and shapes on your third card (love the xxxx's along the top)!

    Busy girl...great cards!

    Petra, you were definitely on a roll today. I'm admiring that drywall tape on #1 and your take on the sketches, is -as usual - so clever. Each card has boldness & color with the elements & the way that you place them - great design. I'm really enjoying these frames that you've been incorporating lately too. These are 'happy' cards! TFS & Happy wkend. Hugs

    Another three fabulous creations Petra. Love the way you've used the same colourway for all three challenges/sketches - what a clever idea.

    Hugs.
