IC195, OCC Sketch Challenge!!!

Happy Saturday you all!!!

I created this card for todays IC195 - Creative Wall Coverings and todays OCC Sketch Challenge -which is hosted by Loretta!!!!


The IC195 inspired me with two Wall Covering ideas (I ran with the designs)......the first one is the Spellbound Overlap Scrolls that I added to the butterfly. The second on is this Graphic Panel Strip that reminded me of the new TSG Flourish Mini Set that I showcased on my post yesterday!!!























I haven't made a pocket card in a while and when I saw this Sketch I was so excited :) !!! If you plan on playing along in the OCC Challenge you don't have to make a pocket card if you don't want to...you can interpret this Sketch anyway you like!!!

For this card I used the awesome Bermuda Bay and Rich Razzleberry color. The DP is from the Bermuda Bay Patterns Designer Collection.

The butterfly is from the Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die. I embossed it with the Cuttlebug Swirl Folder. If you like this flourish image.....then you still have a chance to win it!!!! Check out this post right HERE!!!

Anyway back to my card.....I pierced right around the edges and added a Silver Designer Flower Brad to the pull-out CS.

Don't forget to stop by Jennifer, Loretta, Jenny and Joycelyn's blog for their take on the Sketch!!!

I bet you can't wait to find out *who* will be on the new OCC Team...???? Make sure to stay tuned as we reveal the new Team next week!!! Plus I have more news to tell you this upcoming week :)
