Fairy Birthday Sweet Sketch Wednesday Sketch #95

'Happy Birthday with Betty'

'Happy Birthday with Betty'

Good morning it's Wednesday yet again.  We have another wonderful Autumn morning here in New Zealand, I really don't think Mr Weatherman knows what he's doing as it doesn't feel like Autumn.  My youngest son starts Soccer on Saturday for his winter sports and my eldest son is still finishing off his summer sport which is Cricket and has a game on Saturday.

"Congratulations to all our winners this week there were so many amazing cards."

This week we've had another wonderful sketch to work with by Arlana Patten and our Sponsor is 

SKETCH #95 

This week the Sweet Sketch Wednesday Design Team have been lucky enough to work with images from

STAMPFAIRY SHOP
.

Gerda the owner of STAMPFAIRY SHOP
is offering our lucky winner this week
4
Digital Images
 of the winners choice.
If you've never looked at STAMPFAIRY SHOP or you haven't seen it for a while please drop by as there is always new and exciting images you won't be disappointed.

Sweet Sketch Wednesday Design Team were lucky to have STAMPFAIRY SHOP as our sponsor and this week I choose "BETTY" she fitted the sketch perfectly and I had used another image of Betty just before Christmas and I love her so much that I found this image of Betty with a Balloon.

Pop over to Sweet Sketch Wednesday and check out what the rest of the Design Team have done with STAMPFAIRY images you won't be disappointed.

DON'T FORGET TO LEAVE A COMMENT ON THE SWEET SKETCH WEDNESDAY SITE TO HAVE A CHANCE TO WIN A PRIZE THAT'S PART OF THE RULES.

I've made two cards this week both with the same image, and digital paper pack and the only difference is that I have used different colours in my colouring and embellishments, it just shows you how one image can look just so different.

Kathie, my mouth just dropped open when I saw both of these Betty cards! They are such cute Birthday cards. I love you choice of papers and the fun embellishing you used on both cards! That heart button is too cute! Oh yes, we would have had a grand time with you at the Expo. They always have so many fun things to look at and you think you have to have it all! The one thing I missed was the brad shop which didn't show up this year! Your fall weather sounds nice too. But it always makes me a little sad because I know the cold is coming! So try to enjoy those warm summer days and nights! Have a great week!
