cardabilities #8

**Second post for the day**

It's the 30th so it's time for the design team reveal for sketch #8 over at cardabilities. Here is the sketch..........

And here is my take.......................

Can you believe this is my first circle card ever!! It was actually fun to do and I used the basic grey "Olivia" papers and a flower woolie from the same collection. The sentiment is from papertrey ink's delightful dahlia set.

Thanks again for looking and have a great day!!

It's Friday and you know what that means..... it's Get Sketchy time! Here is this weeks sketch..........

And here is my take............................

I used a few scraps for the bottom and the flower image is from papertrey ink's floral fusion which was last years cha set. The sentiment is from pti's violet set. Go on over to Get Sketchy and play along.

Thanks for looking and have a great day.

randomness

Hi all! I know I have been a very BAD blogger this summer but it just seems like it has been one thing or another I have to get done that the ole' blog just gets neglected. Besides new floors I have decided to paint our kitchen since it has been awhile and I have been trying to pick out the colors I want to do it in. I found three of those old blue ball jars at a yard sale for 5 bucks for all of them so I am thinking of doing my kitchen in a white and add color with dishes and such. So since you put up with my rambling I will leave you a card I did for one of the card patterns sketches a couple of weeks ago and never got it posted.

Isn't this just the cutest baby card ever??? I had a special someone in mind when I created this and she just had a baby boy.

I am off so have a great day and thanks for looking.

hi all!! Just need to pop in here and post my Get Sketchy card for this week. Here is this weeks sketch.....................

And here is my take...........................................

I used my new basic grey 'olivia" stuff I received the other day. Love this line! For the sentiment I used papertrey ink's "all about you".

Hope you all are having a great summer so far. Mine has been BUSY!! We are still in the process of doing some remodel work and it will not be done for a few more weeks. Can't wait to get it done so I can create more!!

Thanks for looking and have a great day!!

Hello again!!! It's Friday and you know what that means....... it's Get Sketchy time!!! Here is this weeks sketch...................

And here is my take...........................................

I loved this weeks sketch!!! Well I love all of the sketches but I really really liked this one and had a lot of fun playing around with it. I used some scraps in my stash for the triangles along with another one of Martha Stewart's doily tags. I stamped one of the images from the Papertrey ink anniversary set along with one of the sentiments and punched out to layer over the doily. I stamped and cut out two butterflies (also from the set), added a couple of pearls and adhered them to the focal point. So get on over to Get Sketchy and play along....

Thanks for looking and have a great day!!

Hi all! It's the 15th so that means it's time for a cardabilities sketch reveal. This is my first card as a design team member. I'm so excited!! Here is the sketch .........................

And here is my take................................................

I HAD to use some more of those little rosebud flowers that Betsy showed how to make on her blog. I (heart) them!!!!! So fun and easy to make. I used all my favorite colors here...... aqua mist, raspberry fizz, spring moss and vintage cream.

Come on over to cardabilities and play along.........

get sketchy #46

Hi all!! It's Friday and that means it's Get Sketchy time!! Here is this weeks sketch................................

And here is my take......................................

I used some yummy basic grey's green at heart patterned paper for the bottom. I layered that over a white card stock base that I ran thru my cuttle bug with the linen impression plate from papertrey ink. The simply chartreuse green was run thru the cuttle bug also with Provo crafts Victoria embossing folder. To top it off I used one of Martha Stewart's doily tags and add a couple of punched leaves and three of these awesome rolled flowers that Betsy did on her blog here.

Thanks for looking and have a great day!!

Hi all!! Sorry for the lack of posting but it seems my mojo has gone out the door the last couple of weeks or so!!

But never fear ..... it's Friday and time for Get Sketchy!!! 

Here is this weeks sketch.......................................

And here is my take....................................

I was in the mood for a baby card and so I whipped out my new set from papertrey ink called "night, night moon". I love all the little baby elements in this set. So cute!  It really is not this washed out in real life..... don't know why when I upload that blogger washes out the photos.

Have a great day and thanks for looking!
