City Crafters Week 39

Hello ... good morning to you all ... I am hosting this weeks' challenge at City Crafters Challenge Blog and I thought this week I do a sketch ... never done one of these before ... nor had I ever drawn one on my computer ... but that turned out to be easy peasy so I'm hoping you will also find the sketch just as easy and come and join us ... Pixie Dust Paperie is generously sponsoring this challenge so you can win a $15 gift certificate to spend on any of their lovely goods ... and we have the very talented Tracy MacDonald as  Guest Designer ... please hop over and welcome her ... 
Ok ... this is the sketch ...




... and my card




I made this for my friends' daughter and I just love these papers from SU and the beautiful image from Crafty Secrets ... the tag was made using the "Fancy Tags" by Spellbinders ... I cut it in thin black card  printed the sentiment on white card ... trimmed that and adhered it to the black tag ... 



So now it's over to you ... I am excited to see what you come up with ...
AND
I would like to say a huge THANK YOU ... to all my lovely friends at
... for their beautiful Birthday Cards ... you guys are just the best!! ... I get to celebrate today and tomorrow ...
If you want to see what I'm talking about just pop over to the blog and take a peek ...

Have a wonderful day 

~ Ros ~
