Good morning, and welcome to my blog. Living in the Southern Hemisphere, it's the first week of Spring, thank goodness, which means summer is just around the corner. Thank you so much for visiting my blog. Now it's time to see what I've been up to this month. I've had a busy month of August, and September is looking very similar.
This month over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2, we have another two new sketches and one from the past. We would love to see your cards, especially if you used all three sketches.
Sketch #310
I really try to be creative and design these sketches each year with something new in mind and something a bit different.
I do hope you like this month's sketches.
This is an easy sketch, and with this card, no design paper is in sight. I let this beautiful image speak for itself.
Sweetpeas are my very favourite flowers. The perfume is amazing, and my dad would grow a big fence line of them every year for my Mum, as they were her favourite flowers as well.
Don't forget to drop by Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 and see what the rest of the design team has created this month.

Hi Kathie, a stunning monochrome card, I love the smell of sweet peas, I was given some seeds as a child to grow in the front yard, the variety of colours was amazing. A gorgeous card sketch to follow. Happy first week of Spring, we are enjoying a few warm days in NSW, before another cold blast. Thank you for joining us at Lil Patch of Crafty Friends, good luck in the prize draw... Megan DT LPoCF
Hi Kathie, the card is beautiful, the flower is colored perfectly. I really like the background created with the embossing folders. The red embellishments add an elegant touch. Thanks for joining The Craftong Challenge! Tatiana x DT
