Another sketch challenge - wahooo!

I hopped on over to Jen's blog and checked out her Sketch for You to Try.
This one had me a bit stumped - I knew what I *wanted* to do, but each image that I tried just didn't seem to work out. Then, when I was doing my last and final card, I realized AFTER I had glued down all my layers, that the one ribbon piece (or paper, whichever you chose to use) was supposed to be over the front of the left hand layer and under the right hand layer...OOOPS! Oh well, my ribbon is under both layers LOL...kinds defeats the purpose of having it there, cuz you can't really see it, but that's ok - learn as we go, right?!
I totally *heart* the designer paper I used for this card - it's again part of the DCWV paper pack that I bought at the Drayton Valley Scrapbook Store. And...I tried a new product tonight! The pink dots on the scallop circle are made with Liquid Pearls. How fun is that!?! I can make my OWN! Wahooo....I think I did pretty good for my first attempt..what do you think? :o) Thanks for stopping by tonight...toodles!
