Three Clover's Thursday Challenge #36--a sketch

The challenge this week at 3 Clovers Thursday Challenge is the fun sketch below! And boy...did our girls come up with some great creations for your inspiration...You must go take a peek and hopefully play along with all of us this week!

I made this card to thank my newly married friends (I went to their wedding in Vegas last week). They had their reception at this wonderful Italian restaurant. Delicious! If you ever get a chance to eat at BUCA di BEPPO...don't miss out! We 'sort of' ate ourselves silly!

This fun stamp set named Viola worked out just perfect. I paper pieced his clothes and hat as well as adding the "sketti" on dimensionals.



ahh...the pretty inside-love this punch!

    Well, now, Sue, you've done it again. This is so amusing and cleverly executed. And, of course, I "need" that punch now.
