A Die for a Sketch - Tiddlyinks

I have some exciting news to share - there is a brand new challenge blog starting up called A Die for a  Sketch and I am one of the design team members... woooohooo! This is truly an international team and is going to be so much fun and it is so exciting to be on a team with a brand new challenge blog.  Then I discovered my pal Nancy is on the same team is amazing because I had no clue about that and she lives in the same province as I do.   Anyway, I'll give you some information on this new challenge site.  Challenges will begin the 5th of each month and the only requirement is that you follow the current and use something punched.  Your project can be a card, anything but a card, a scrapbook page, whatever you can create as long as it uses the sketch and something punched.  So let's get this party started!  Here's the sketch for June's challenge:
 
 For my card, I used the Tiddly Inks Wryn Hanging Around.  Now to be perfectly honest with you, I've never used these images before but believe me, this isn't going to be my last.  She's got some really cute images and I love the whimsy and abandon this image portrays.  I've used Copics to colour the image and the papers are all by Authentique.  The little banners are one of the dies from the MFT Mini Wavy Banners, the circles were cut with Quikutzdies and the flags are from the Nestablilities Nested Lacy Pennants.  Lastly, the large wood button is a Prima wood buttons (I need more of those!).  So hop on over to the challenge blog and see what the rest of the girls have created for your inspiration and then be sure to enter.
Challenges:
Tiddly Inks - Masculine ( mine is the tomboy theme)
Fashionista - Simply Summer
Divas by Design- Anything Goes
Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes
