Going places in style...

Happy Bellariffic Friday Folks!  Our challenge this week was a sketch and I loved it!  I found it nice and easy and this card came together in record time.  I remember when I looked at a sketch and cringed, now I find them as such a great tool.  I rarely make a card without one anymore.  I've learned to not get so hung up on all the parts.  For instance a circle doesn't have to be a circle it just means placement.  But I pretty much followed today's sketch...let's take a look.

 
I chose Mo Manning's image Prince Edward Island released in rubber through Stamping Bella.  I just love the vintage feel of this chicklet so I continued that theme with the floral and stripped paper as well as the cording and Picot edged Nestie Die.  Papers are Glitz Cashmere Dame 6x6, the flower was made using MFT felt and their Flower Trio die-namic which I then topped with a Kaiser 1/2 pearl.  The sentiment is from Stamping Bella as well but I don't see it in the shop any longer.  I've also added some glitter to make this extra girly and sparkly.  The photo just doesn't do it justice.
 
Next week our challenge is to use Polka Dots!  Another easy one.  Hope you can join us.  Just send a photo of your creation to Emily@stampingbella.com by Thursday to be included in the Friday lineup.  And stop by the Blog to see some inspiration for the rest of the Sistahs.  We have Bella Bucks up for grabs weekly for one lucky contributor and one commentor. 
 
Enjoy your weekend!
