Challenge 27 Either Or

 Hey everyone!!  Wow....so much eye candy this last week between our last challenge and our Earth Day blog hop.  Thank you to all who participated with us!!!

Our challenge this week is going to be an either/or challenge.  We want you to pick your favorite Michelle Perkett Studio image and we are also giving you the option to use our sketch that Nancy has so graciously created for us or you can use your own design.  We are basically making this an anything goes type of challenge but we would love to see what you can do with this sketch.
Great sketch with so many possibilities and the DT really had some fun creating with this one as you will see in our inspiration for you!!!

First we have this beautiful card from Jean.  I am so in love with the colors on this one!!!
Next we have this darling card from Nancy.  Such a sweet little card!!
Next up is Gini and it is just adorable.  This will be Gini's last card as part of our DT and we are going to miss her horribly!!  Thank you for all your hard work Gini!!!
Yea....and normally you would have me last but I had my 1 year old granddaughter this last weekend and she must have gotten away with my USB cord to my camera!!  Ugh....I have torn my house apart looking for that darned thing so I am praying that I will find it and have my card posted for you tomorrow!!  SORRY!!!  I feel like such a loser!  :)

WooHoo...the lost is found!  Here's my card based on this sketch.


Okay...there you have it girls!!  Remember....you must use a Michelle Perkett image, you must post before 5:00 MDT on Monday May 3rd and the winner chosen by random will receive a $10 gift certificate to Michelles' FABULOUS etsy shop!!!!

I'm really looking forward to seeing what you all create for us this week!!!

Have a good one!!!
