A nice bright summery card. We are in the middle of summer here in New Zealand and sometimes I just feel like creating a card to reflect that. This one is bright and summery:

You might have to scroll down to find the post for Sweet Sketch Wednesday as I couldn't find a link direct to the post - only to the blog. Not sure what I did wrong but the sketch that the card is based on is this one:
I have used some papers from a paper pad by Kate Knight to form the main background. The orange matting is from a scrap paper pack that I have been using alot recently - after it sat in my stash for more than two years! The purple is also some from my stash - think it has been there even longer than the orange! I added some glitter ribbon from American Crafts to the sketch to tie in the other background colour.
The image that I have used comes from Whoopsi Daisy. I have had this image for a while but I think this may be the first time that I have used it. The sentiment is from Paper Smooches.
Hi Suze, It looks like you were able to finally link your card. I am sorry you had a problem. Sometimes wednesday mornings get away from us. Arlana hasn't been feeling very well and she is the one that puts the inlinkz on each Tuesday night. She forgot to do it because she was sick. You card is super sweet. This is a perfect spring time card....spring :) oh how I am looking forward to it coming. It turned really cold today.
