Sketchy Circles

Jenn created this super fun sketch for Try Stampin' on Tuesday this week and I just had to find time to play along.   It just screamed Circle Circus to me and I am a bit in love with that set lately.  :)
Hopefully it was okay to take a few liberties with the sketch.  My computer was off in my stamp room and I was too impatient to wait on it to boot up.  (It's seriously a dinosaur!)  I knew I wanted to flip it, but I didn't do it with all the elements in the right spot.   I still think it turned out pretty fun.   I'm trying my best to use up some of those soon to retire in colors!  :)

On another note, look what I got my baby girl today!  I love it!

Awesome card Rita - love those colours and Circle Circus is such a fun 'go to' set.

Such a pretty little dress for Laila - no pink in sight? Lol.

I love what you have done with Circle Circus lately. I need to pull that set out and play.

Laila's new dress is adorable. I love purple and brown (well, really purple with anything is awesome in my eyes). Can't wait to see pictures of her wearing it! :)

It's a circus up in here...a Circle Circus! This is too cute, Rita! You have inspired me to get that set out soon. I seem to have forgot about it. Liltte Miss Laila is going to be quite the fashionista, isn't she? Adorable dress! :)

You did perfect! I have such a hard time figuring out what to do with circle-image stamps, but this is a great idea. And, of course, I don't think sketches need to be exact :)
That little dress is so ruffly and cute. Your baby girl is definitely going to be well dressed!
