Guest Designer for Sugar Creek Hollow

I know that I teased you with some news to be announced this morning and here it is:
I am Guest Designer for Sugar Creek Hollow for the month of April. It is super news for me, as this is one of my favorite challenge sites and you see me post cards using Tracy's images each week. I was so excited when she asked me in February and it has been hard to keep it to myself.
The challenge this beautiful Saturday morning is a sketch..... and here is the card that I created using the image "Wedding Cake".


You may not be able to see in my picture, but the image has shadows and depth when you print it out that is just gorgeous. I needed a card for a cousin that is getting married soon and I love how this turned out. I used the colors from the challenge at The Color Throwdown using these colors:


I hope you can stop by and check out the rest of the talented design team at Sugar Creek Hollow and play along in this week's challenge. You do not have to have one of their images to play, but you are entered to win the prize twice if you do use one of them, plus Tracy has some freebies, if you would like to try before you buy.
Thanks for stopping by for a visit.....Happy Day to you all!!
Card Details:
Paper: GinaK, K&Co Black and Ivory, Bazzill
Extra: Martha Stewart border punch, Dollar Tree ribbon, GinaK rhinestones, Spellbinders Peony die
