Turtle Soup Sketchathon March 12 Reveal

I hope you've been having fun with the March Sketchathon at the Turtle Soup forum!  If you haven't checked it out yet, please do!  If you don't make cards, use the sketches to create a layout!  If you don't make layouts, use the sketches to make cards or ATCs or altered projects!  We're quite flexible in "The Pond" as we call it!  :)

The challenge for today was to scraplift a member and add an extra challenge.  I chose to lift a really cute card by Tracy Feely.  Here's her card -

I instantly fell in LOVE with her card and knew it wouldn't be hard for me to make it except for one thing...  I had NOTHING to make a tree with and I do NOT draw well at ALL!  So I saved Tracy’s card as a picture and printed it out. Then I cut out the printout and used it to trace on some cardstock. I also didn’t have a good banner so I did the same thing with it. I did have the same grass punch and I had some good heart punches and an embossing folder that was perfect. So I was able to completely and totally lift this card!  Here's my version -
I used a different embossing folder, different punch for the "grass" and I hand wrote the sentiment.  You may not have all the elements to lift this card either, but I challenge you to do your best!  And be sure to post it in the Turtle Soup Forum and Gallery

Here are the materials I used to create my card – Card base – Recollections; Cardstock – Bazzill, CTMH, Unknown; Grass Punch – Fiskars; Large and Medium Heart Punches – Creative Memories; Small Punch – Kreaxions #917; Brad – Recollections; Pens – American Crafts, Omni Gel; Embossing Folder – Cuttlebug

Want to win an amazing Kreaxions punch??? Well, just leave me a comment! Each time you comment on a post on this blog for the month of March you will get an entry to win. On March 3rd I will reveal the winner by using Random.Org. The prize is a punch of your choice from the Just Imagine/Kreaxions store! So be sure to leave a comment for every new post and maybe you’ll be the winner!
Happy Scrapping and Happy Cardmaking!!!
