First of all, thank you all who had participated in Taylor's TECC Anniversary sketch challenge. What a great fun it was all week. The cards were fabulous... and you came up with some very creative ideas for my circle sketch. Double cheers to those who managed to do all 9 sketches!

Congratulations! Taylor will be in touch with you about your $10 gift certificate.
There is a new sketch today, TECC53:
I have been doing this shabby/distressed look for days now so today I wanted to do something more elegant but simple. I thought this card could be great for a wedding, engagement... or some special occasion other than Valentine's Day. What do you think?
Stamps: Love is Sweet (Taylored Expressions) and Fiery Floral Scrapblock (Cornish Heritage Farms)...
Paper: Riding Hood Red, Close to Cocoa, and Pink Pirouette (SU!)...
Ink: Pitch Black Adirondack (Ranger Ink), Pink Pirouette (SU!)... Copic Markers...
Embellishments: rhinestones (Zva Creations) and brown satin ribbon (misc)...
Tools: Swiss Dots embossing plate (Cuttlebug-Provo Craft), Label Two die (Spellbinders Nestabilities), paper-piercing tools, sponge dauber...
Check out what the rest of the Cupcake crew came up with: Taylor, Ana, Vicki, Stephanie, Jami, Donna, and Jackie.
Thanks for looking and have a wonderful weekend!
