Happy Saturday! Time for a sketch challenge with Utah Divas International. This week, we are trying something new: instead of heading back to the main UDI blog to find all of the Diva links, each of us will be providing a link to the next Diva on the list. You'll be able to circle all the way through and see everyone's projects. I just tried it this morning and - let me tell you - it was a fast and easy way to see the amazing projects everyone is sharing this weekend. Take a look through - I believe you'll be lovin' the variety of cards you'll see, all based on the same sketch. And, here, I humbly present my card:

For my card today, I used some paper I decorated earlier this week. (Click here for that post.) I ended up flipping the sketch so that I could put my pieces together the way I wanted to. And one little thing I did a little differently - I used linen thread and some simple stitching to adhere my vellum layer to my card front. Aside from that it's a pretty basic card - basic so I can use if for most any occasion ;)

For the next stop on our Circle of Divas (my name, lol), click here to be directed to Diva Alisa Tilsner's blog. She has a beautiful project for you to check out as well as a link for the next Diva's blog.Thanks for stopping by!

Sooo beautiful! Love the design and look of your card. What a great idea to flip the card too.. I'll have to try that. I have linen thread! I totally forgot about it, thanks for the reminder. Very inspiring..and a lovely card.

Oh Adriana I really really like this and I dont normally like the Asian type of cards. I love the way you used the linen thread to attach the vellum! Also love the background paper you created/used.
