This week over at
"COWGIRLS SUNDAY STAMP'EN CHALLENGE SPOT"
we are having a fabulous sketch challenge.
Just check this sketch out.

Now I have been asked, "Do you have to use a Butterfly?" "Do you have to use flower's?"

For anyone who has not ever done a sketch before, they are so much fun.

The layout is there for you. You do not have to actually use a Butterfly and Frilly Flowers.
Its more of the shapes and layout people are looking for.
Now some do exactly to sketch. Others turn it around and upside down.
So play, craft and have fun!

The sponsor this week is KANDREWS!

Hop on over and check out the details on the award for this week.
