Gordie the Giraffe & rejects

Hello, all! I have a few cards to share with you today. First is a card that I made for Sketch Sunday over at the PWCO Blog.

I used the adorable Gordie the Giraffe from the Safari Friends collection for my card. The patterned paper is from the Playground collection by Echo Park and the sentiment is from Papertrey Ink.

And here are some rejects...

Yes, submission rejects. I tried but they didn't want them, so here they are. =)

I adore stamps from Paper Smooches and I used submission calls as my excuses to play with them. The cute little bat is from the Falling For You set and the patterned paper is from the Fine and Dandy True Blue collection. This one was for the big Go To Sketches call and I used Sketch 14 for this card.

This is also for the same submission call and I used Sketch 21 for this one. The apple is also from the Falling For You set and the sentiment is from Papertrey Ink.

This last one is for the Sep/Oct issue call and I used one of the sketches. Now you know how much I like working with sketches! =) The cute scooter is from the Spiffy Scooters set and the patterned paper is from the Hopscotch collection by BasicGrey.

That's all for now. Definitely not all the rejects I have, more later! =) Hope you all have a beautiful day! =)




Thanks for stopping by!
