Challenging Soft Pencil

Errrr, Soft Pencil is challenging us?? Soft Pencil is sponsoring a couple of challenges. That's it! Soft Pencil is sponsoring several challenges during the month of June.
Critter Sketch Challenge is one of these. I chose a Soft Pencil image of Michu and Ratiny playing guitar and singing. I liked this sketch since it had the smaller squares to contain more music. The DP is HOTP. I considered adding some Dazzles or brads, but decided that this card needed to remain simple.


Another challenge Soft Pencil is sponsoring is Aud Sentiments Challenge. This week's sentiment is "Hello Friend" and must be used on the card exactly as posted. Hello Friend is a Cricut Expression on the Beyond Birthdays Cartridge. I used the Soft Pencil image of Michu the Magician. Hello Friend could refer to the bunny appearing out of the hat.


Soft Pencil images are simply drawn, easy to color and very versatile in use on cards and scrapbook layouts.
