This Tuesday we have one more sketch challenge for August. I love peaches, and they have been absolutely delicious this year! I chose the Peaches stamp set from this monthÂ’s release. I placed a number of the small words on a single block and used it to make the background paper. It started to have a country feel, so I pierced and did faux-stitching. Hope you like it...it was fun to make!

It does have a great country feel and it looks delicious. I love how you did the bg with the words and also really like the double button/bow treatment. Unique and Oh So Cute!!

Cheryl, you're a peach of a gal and this card is darling! I love to be surprised with bg ideas from designers. You get an A+ from me for the creative inspiration. And I agree with you and Becky ~ it does have a country feel and that's just fine by me. Love that faux stitching ~ Cheryl I really had to look close it looks so real. A beautiful card, and really pretty on the SCS FB page *wink*
