Sweet sketch #160 challenge This weeks Sweet sketch is being sponsored by Catch the bug .. I made my card and realized just as I was to post it that I left a word out of the sentiment.. It's one of those sentiments you can choose what word you want to put in.. well being in a hurry I forgot that part. So I wrote in Sweet but after looking at it now I should of put Zen .. oh well we all have those times where things just dont go right. I am having one of those times.. I do like the card and it will be given in the future.. I can always change it later just not at posting time..
