Shining Star Sketch

Another awesome sketch at the Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge Blog by the lovely and talented Julia Aston!


Here is my card:


Loved the little boxes in Julia's sketch, and I love the patterns on the Bitty Banners...sooo I just chopped off the "tails" (eek, not appropriate for a Waltzingmouse image, hee)...and left them as little squares.  The star and sentiment are from one of my fave sets, Sewing Box-Hugs.  The chevron stripes and polka-dotted background are from Off Beat Backrounds (can't put that one away!), and the flourish from the beautiful new set  Flourishes:  Scallops and Dots

It's so HOT here that only bright colors would do this week...and some sparkle!
