Challenge on Tuesday | Card Sketch

Hey Lily Bee Fans! I am here to share a few easy cards today based on a sketch and a twist!

Since this week's theme is 1 item, 2 ways - I used this one sketch, to make 2 cards that are similar, yet still a little different too!

Here is the sketch for this month:

Here is the first card I made, using lots of Sweet Shoppe:

Supplies: Sweet Shoppe (6x6 Tiny Tablet, Embellishment Bundle) Destination (Embellishment Bundle), Pinwheel (Label Stickers), Autumn Spice (Clear Stamps)

I used a combination of wood buttons from both the Destination and Sweet Shoppe collections to embellish some of the layered circles:

I still can't get enough of the Autumn Spice stamps, and the "happy" stamp is great for cards ! Just add a few bits of happiness to a label sticker and you are set!

My next card is fairly similar, using a few of the same papers and I added in different papers and changed the placement of the title!

Supplies: Pinwheel (6x6 Tiny Tablet, Embellishment Bundle, Chit Chat Stickers, Letter Stickers, Label Stickers), Sweet Shoppe (Embellishment Bundle, 6x6 Tiny Tablet), Persnickety (6x6 Tiny Tablet, ABC Stickers)

I just love the new Letter Stickers in the Pinwheel collection - they are perfect for cards!

and my other favorite are the Chit Chat stickers! I added a few birthday like words along the top and bottom row of the card - just the right touch to make it a little more "birthday" than the card was!

Ok, that's it for me - so let's see what YOU can do with this sketch! We would love to have you join our sketch challenge this month - show us how you will interpret the card sketch by sharing it with us in the Lily Bee Flickr gallery.
