Hello all!! Today I am popping in to share a card I made for ODBDSLC165 Sketch Challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs... it will be a month of sketch challenges! I went CAS on this - embossed my background and used the scalloped die from Recipe Card and Tag dies. I fussy cut out the shovel and paper pieced the handle on... then decided it needed a little oomph so I put crystal effects on the handle. Some ribbon and twine to anchor it all down.
For more details on the challenge and to see the other DT creations, please visit the Our Daily Bread Designs Blog .
Thanks for looking! Please join us; we'd love to see your take on this week's challenge!

Diana, what a great guy card! I love how you've used this shovel and used such masculine colors and texture with the twine! It really looks so real and like you could take it out and dig with it! And I love this verse from Ecclesiates! Fabulous sketch card!
