La Vie Est Belle

Good morning!  Happy Monday!  Well, it's just barely Monday as this posts and hopefully Blogger is doing it for me since I think (hope) I am still sleeping.  I am here to share my Guest Designer card for Seems A Little Sketchy #22.  I am honored to have been one of their guest designers for the month of September.   The new challenge is being sponsored by Sassy Studio Designs.  I was generously provided with a SSD digi stamp to use for my card.

Here is SALS-22:


Here is my card:


I used SU Bordering Blue cardstock for my card base and mats.  The patterned papers are from the Prima En Francais 6x6 pad.  My fun Sassy image is France Honey from the It's A Small World-2 collection that was released in August.  You can find her here.  I printed her on Neenah Solar White and colored her with my Copics.  The sentiment is from Paulette at Create With TLC.  A few buttons tied with Baker's Twine and a double-loop grosgrain bow finished my card.

Here is a close-up of the image:


Thanks for stopping by!  Be sure to visit the Seems A Little Sketchy Challenge blog and check out the fantastic creations from the DT and my co-Guest Designer, Beth!  I know the team would love it if you played along!

Have a great day!  I'll be around to visit your blogs once I am up!  See you soon!
