My Last Page Plans Sketch
As promised here is my last sketch card as a Page Plans guest designer. It has been such a fun month getting to design with the fun sketches and their wonderful Design Team! If you would like a chance to work with them, there will be a Design Team call starting September 5 - be sure to check out today's post on the Page Plans blog for all the details!
I have another 3 Step Sea Shells card today. I used a few of the smaller shells for this card - the sketch was perfect! :) I just love how pretty these shells are and they are so easy to stamp with! I used Vintage Words for the sentiment with my fun new Nestabilities ribbon slide dies!
I also used this as another chance to play with Becky Oehlers' beautifully designed paper, Demi Designs. She's just released a few fun new designs so be sure to check them out (along with what her Demi Divas have done with them!) - they are FREE!! Isn't that neat?! :) The papers I used here are from the Piffaro collection. Once I downloaded them and opened them in Photoshop I changed the color a bit by adding some color overlays. By doing this I was able to use the same paper but make it look slightly different. For the background paper I printed another design in the collection on a piece of Bali Breeze paper, I really like the subtle watermark look this gives it! There are so many possibilities with these digi papers - I have only scratched the surface I'm sure!!
Be sure to check out what the other Page Plans designers did using this sketch!
One last think I keep forgetting . . . September 1 is the next Paper Pretties Stamping in Your Jammies! We always have tons of fun at these parties - Charmaine comes up with great challenges, there are prizes and lots of chatting! Howdy Cowgirl will be released that night so be sure to stop by and join us for a fun night!!

P.S. I tried, I really did but 600+ posts are just too much for me to catch up on!! I had to "mark all as read" on my Google Reader last night - so sorry, I hate to miss anything!! I will work on slowly catching up as I make my daily visits. :)
