Here are the beautiful sketches;

Week 4:

I'll be honest, neither of these turned out quite as I had imagined from my little brainstorm sketches, but hey, that's the fun of it right?!  I'm quite happy with how they ended up so not all is lost :)

  1. That threadwork is AMAZING! (I know there's a proper name for it, but it escapes me right now). And I love the pops of green on the second card. I love how cards often have minds of their own and don't always turn out the way we want - sometimes it goes in the bin and sometimes it's WONDERFUL!
