Fetch A Sketch Challenge 34 - Midway Extra

We are at the point of the midway part of the current Fetch A Sketch challenge and Lou has set this fab sketch and because it is October we are having a pink theme!  So follow the sketch and add some pink!

I've raided my overflowing box of bits to make this card - the pink dotted paper is from Funky Hand - Rainbow Polkadots download and I've added ribbons from my stash along with half pears, a tag I found (Sizzix die cut) and another of those rather blingy dangly gems!

So you see - not a difficult sketch at all!  Good luck with it and for more details and how to enter, pop over to Fetch A Sketch!

I've been lucky enough to use the Dude Time Doodles Breast Cancer Awareness Girl which I coloured with Promarkers plus stickles on her pink ribbon.  X Cut ovals along with Funky Hand Shabby Saturday download papers plus flowers from the downloads and some bits n bobs from my stash and the card is complete!

Get Them Checked!

I have a badge in my sidebar to the Link Up For Pink blog - if you've not yet clicked on it do so!  They have started a fortnightly challenge, and the first one is an awareness theme - get them checked, kinda thing!

I've used this wonderful Saturated Canary image which is especially for the cause.  She's been coloured with Promarkers plus a little bling in her hair and on the tshirt symbol.  Papers are Echo Park - Be Mine which I've cut with my new circle Nesties (no more wonky circles for me!) plus a little inking and doodling around the edges.

Pink organza ribbon has been added (The Stamp Man) plus some pins and pearls and I've used the fab May sketch from Kathy's Waffle Sketch File.

Fetch A Sketch Challenge 22 - Midway Extra

It's time for my offering over at Fetch A Sketch as it is the Midway Extra post.  Jenny set the challenge and sketch last Monday:

And now its my turn to do the middle bit!  We are sponosred this fortnight by Bugaboo who are generously offering the winner a $21 gift certificate to spend instore!  To have a look at the huge range of digi stamps, just click the banner below!

And here is my take on the sketch.  You can flip it or rotate it and as long as we can see the sketch in your creation we will be happy!  And you can create any item you want - it doesn't have to be a card or layout!

I've used the Ribbon Bunny digi and coloured it with Promarkers.  I've used my Nesties for layering and the paper is from Shabby Saturday download from Funky Hand.  The ribbon and pearls are from my stash along with the pearl headed brad to keep the ribbon in place.

I picked the digi as its a cause very close to my heart at the moment as I have a wonderful blogging friend who is suffering a lot from Breast Cancer and is undergoing treatment.  If you get chance, pop over to Jennifer and tell her I said hello!

For more details on how to enter please pop over to the Fetch A Sketch challenge blog.  Good luck!
