Sentimental Sundays Challenge #28-Sketch

This week the Sentimental Sundays team has sketch challenge for you to try.

Here is DT member Dorcas' sketch that I worked from. Isn't it a fun one?



My card started out as an anniversary card for my husband but just looked too childish. So instead of using the "Happy Anniversary" sentiment that I had ready, I typed up this one. Now I still need to make an Anniversary card! Yikes - I'm running out of time.

I hope you will join us and use this wonderful sketch from Dorcas. Just remember to include a sentiment.

Last week I was sadly remiss in welcoming the new designers to the Sentimental Sundays team. We have a large, international team that is going to be a ton of fun and will offer you a lot of inspiration.

Meet the new designers on the Sentimental Sundays team.


A complete list of all 23 (yes 23!) designers including the senior DT can be found on the Sentimental Sundays blog.
