get sketchy #43

Woo Hoo it's Friday and that means it''s Get Sketchy time!! Our sponsor this week is the Eyelet Factory. On to the sketch...............................................


I really liked this sketch because of it's simplicity. I totally love what the other girls did with and it is so amazing how we all interpret the sketches. I have been on this love affair with aqua mist lately and my card today is no exception.........................................



I also broke open my new simply chartreuse card stock from Papertrey ink.
I am lovin' this color lots! I cut out the little flowers from some My Minds Eye patterned paper. The leaf is stamped with versamark onto the aqua mist card stock. I tied each piece of twine in a bow and adhered it to my card stock and then used a glue dot to adhere the flower on top of the twine. I also made this card in a one layer version..........................


Sorry about the lighting..... the sun can't make up it's mind what it wants to do :)  So there you have it..... go and give the sketch a try!!

Thanks for looking and have a great day!!

get sketchy #42

Hi all!! I finally have my internet fixed so thought I would pop in and post my Get Sketchy card from last Friday.  Here is the sketch....................................


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




I used My Minds Eye patterned paper, a House of 3 ledger tag, punch hearts, a felt scallop die cit from Papertrey ink's medium scallop die and a piece of lace. The sentiment is from Papertrey ink's Inside out: Thank you set. I hope you all have a chance to play.

I'm off to play catch up....

I am having intermittent problems with my internet. I was able to get on in time to post my project I did for the first Waltzing Mouse challenge. Here is the sketch..........


Here is my take...........


I used the new Delovely again from Cosmo Cricket along with the WMS stamps. I will try and come back later too see if my internet is working better to post the deets.

Have a great day!!!

cps 169

Second Post for the day!!!

I had a bit of extra time this week so thought I would play with the CPS sketch #169. I ordered the new cosmo cricket "Delovely" chipboard die cuts and  6X6 paper pad and I got them in the mail yesterday and when I saw the cute little rainbow I knew I had to use this for the sketch.

Here is the sketch.........................................


I am totally devoting this card to all of you out there who have had nothing but rain the last few weeks:)  Seriously!!! We have had rain EVERYDAY for the last three weeks or so. I have not even been able to get my garden planted! URG!! I am soooo wishing for sunshine!! So here is my card............



Is this fitting or what??!! In addition to the Cosmo stuff I used the new sun from the papertrey ink set Up & Away. I so adore this set! The flower stems are from pti's blooming button bits set. This was such a fun card to make and a bit out of my element as I usually don't use many chipboard die cuts. This collections colors are very bright & cheery. I really didn't think I would like it but when I saw it IRL I fell in love.

I'm off friends........

As always Thanks for looking and have a great day!!!

Hi all!! It's Friday and time for Get Sketchy!!! Our sponsor this week is Delicious Scraps. this weeks prize winner will receive some new digital images.

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

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

I could not get this one to photograph right! The card is actually one of the pink papers from Delicious Scraps that I printed off. I also used this awesome bracket frame..... I will definitely be using more of those. The fabric brad is from K&Company and the leaf punch from Martha Stewart. I used silk ribbon from Papertrey ink. Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!

May Cards Pubs

Hi all!! thought I would pop in real quick and share my cards that where published in the May issue of Cards Magazine. As some of you know one of my cards was featured on the cover.......




Here is the original picture..............................................



And here are the other two cards...................................




They ended up just using the card with the bright pink flower in the magazine and they take WAY better pictures than I do :) Picture taking is not my favorite thing to do. I even have trouble trying to take pics of my girlies!!

I also had a card featured in the Scrapbook Trends May Magazine......................


These cards were some of my very favorite to make. I had a blast and am so thankful to Cards for picking them up. Hope you all have a wonderful evening and thanks for visiting!!!
