Today's handmade card is from a Challenge that SU! Demonstrators have through Stampers Showcase.  Which is why I have the SCCSC1 (Stampers Showcase Card Sketch Challenge 1).  I didn't want you guys to think I just put a bunch of initials after my cards to keep you guessing! 



This is their First sketch challenge.  I love these challenges because it makes me make an original card.  I don't want to get in a rut and always be inspired by other stampers designs.

Here is my design:



I haven't used Inspired by Nature for quite a while, so figured I would bring it out!  I also used the Texture plates (one I haven't used before!) and the Color Spritzer Tool!  THREE items that I haven't used before or in a while!!  Yay me!!  HeeHee!

Inks:

If you were wondering what SAB (Sale-A-Bration) is I will fill you in!  It is a yearly program that Stampin' Up! does where if you spend $50.00 you get to pick anything from the SAB catalog and get it for FREE!!   Now, spending $50.00 is not very hard, and a lot of people save up their Christmas money to spend it during SAB so they can get more for their $$$!     IF you decide to become a Demonstrator during SAB you get 15% off the kit AND you get to pick a $47.95 stamp set EXTRA just for joining!!!   If you become a demonstrator under me, all my classes are discounted for as long as you  are my downline!!   Most of my classes are around $10.00 and that is the amount that all my classes are discounted!  Cool, how that works out, don't you think?  Not only do you get to come and learn and have fun, BUT you also don't have to pay Full Price!!   If you are interested, go to my Stampin' Up! demonstrator site here and click on Start your Own Business, the recruit password is 'GlitterNfool'.  With SAB going on, NOW is the best time to Join!!!
