Hello crafty friends...and Happy New Year!!!
The Power Poppy design teams & PageMaps.com have teamed up to bring you a fantastic selection of Card Maps (aka: card sketches) to give your card making an inspirational boost!
It also happens to be this month's Power & Spark Challenge! If you play along with us, you'll be in the running to win a $50 shopping spree to the Power Poppy store! This month there's a BONUS too... PageMap's Becky Fleck is offering a $25 Power Poppy gift card as well if you leave a comment on THIS post over at PageMaps: Power Poppy Giveaway.
Here's a look at my card:
I worked with one of my very favorite oldie-but-goodie patterned paper packs, Basic Grey's Sweet Threads. Love the happy colors & patterns in that one!
My image is from Power Poppy's Everything's Even Rosier stamp set, which I stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black, and colored with the following Copic Markers.
Here's a look at the sketch I was given:
Be sure to swing by the Bloom Brigade & Instant Gardener Power Poppy designers to see their beautiful creations, and to play along with this month's challenge!
