Cosmo Cricket bright and happy, and Limelight classy

i cropped yesterday, and HOOOOO, boy, i got some cards made! WOOT!
i wrote out my list of challenges and drew the sketches i wanted to play with, and here's what i came up with...

this one, for SRM's sketch challenge, using the fabulous De-Lovely line from Cosmo Cricket (the yellow paper and that lone cute chipboard flower), a strip of the fabby paper sent to me for my BIRTHDAY from the delightful Karen (XO!) and some Heidi Swapp stickery goodness:


here's the sketch upon which my card was based:


the next card, for the current Limelight challenge - to use an all-occasion sentiment:


another angle, to show the metallic cardstock i used for the punched border and sentiment:


i LOVE the paper (DCWV) but totally struggle to use it! brought it with me to the crop with the intention of polishing it off, and it was just the touch i needed to give this card some class...

here's the Limelight sketch that inspired me:

isn't it a great sketch? i will SO be revisiting this one!

okay, must get back to work. i have a few more touches to put on some of these cards, and i must get cookin' on The Big Project... i'll be back tomorrow with a brand new Dollies Color Challenge!
