Y'all know where this is going, right? Edna Morrisedie has done gone and drawn up a very FUN and challenging sketch at the Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge Blog this week!
I had to keep with my Western theme of the month and use Back and the Saddle AGAIN :)!
The bottom panels made me think of this woodgrain paper in the My Mind's Eye "Miss Caroline Howdy Doody" Collection and then the card just took shape from there! I aligned sentiments from Back in the Saddle on an acrylic block and stamped them all at once.
I had colored this rose from Roses In Bloom a few days ago and it was in my "need to use" bin. I thought it was a perfect Yellow Rose of Texas, then sang that song in my head for the rest of the card-making process!
The Mischief Makers have made some amazing samples with this week's sketch...and now it's your turn to play along, too! Upload your creation HERE by next Friday, June 29th.

Oooooh! That rose is a beauty indeed! Love the coloring and the little bit of sparkle in the center! The contrast of the feminine rose on the wood grain background is really striking and works beautifully!
Yellow Rose of Texas indeed...
and a gorgeous one at that...
all blinged out in the center!
This paper is perfect for that gorgeous bloom...
and those irresistible sentiments...
perfect!
And I'm giddy with excitement for Thursday! :)
Absolutely super! I love the background paper with woodgrain effect. Love, love the yellow rose and the words are perfect. A super take on the sketch!
Yep...this is perfect! Love the yellow rose of Texas theme and all those sentiments!!! I struggled a bit with this one 'cause I kept thinking of the balloon heroine and she's not at my house yet-on her way though! Love the wood bg! New sets...Oh My!!
This is beautiful Kelly! I love the way you rounded up those sentiments. ;)
Love this great big beautiful rose Kelly, it goes so well with the western sentiments. What an unusal sketch this is this week! Got to put my thinking cap on for this one.
Beautiful rustic rose against the woodgrain Kelly!
This is so sweet, that yellow rose looks almost real. That wood is perfect with your sentiments and so clever.
Love the wood.
Wow, your rose is gorgeous, Kelly! Love the background, too!
Love the big bold rose. That's a clever take on this week's sketch. Thanks for sharing.
