Hello Fellow Crafters and Sketch Lovers!

It's time for this week's Featured Spotlight Cards from last Saturday's sketch (SSS129).

First is Josee's pretty Black & White card. I just love the sweet image and the great story behind it (you should read it). The embossed half cirle and the paper flower look fabulous.

Next is Silke's lovely holiday card. The colors work really well, and I love the great textures and all the cut out images. The ribbon is just so pretty with the red button and silver cord.

Lastly, it's Cammie's fabulous PINK card. October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and her card is just perfect for the cause. (Also, there's a story behind it.) Love the pretty papers and the blings. The ribbon is perfect.

Congratulations Ladies! Please feel free to grab your badge below and add it to your blog sidebar. Thank you for sharing your amazing work with us! Hope we will see your creations again.
