Tuesday Morning Sketches #777

Goodness, already time for lucky Tuesday Morning Sketches #777!! 

Considering I didn’t stamp or color anything for this card it sure ended up being a lot of work lol.  Just used sections from a sheet of AC patterned paper from Joann.  For the little strip that the cupcakes are layered on I punched the ends with a SU punch and I decided to add some eyelets - it has been YEARS since I have used those! I even had to pull up a YouTube video to remind myself how to set the eyelet.  That took 3 tries haha oh well it was fun.

Your turn now to have fun with Tuesday Morning Sketches #777!! Maybe you will use some oldie but goodie tools or stash?

Hi!!!

Thanks so much for stopping by for  Tuesday Morning Sketches #776!

This was super fun to make - glad I made two, here again one for a friend to have on hand and one for my own stash.  This is my last little piece of black gingham ribbon.  Pretty sure Hobby Lobby still has it so time to replenish.  All the other supplies are retired CTMH.  

Your turn please join us for Tuesday Morning Sketches #776 - hope to see your creation soon!!

Tuesday Morning Sketches #775

Ohhhh maaaan!  I prolly stretched this sketch a little too far but all I could see was little houses for the four panels.  I was going to try and paint some but - have felt so out of practice and insecure about that lately.  As you see I was afraid I may mess these up even if I just colored them.

Anyway all the houses were too close to the same height so all I could think of to achieve the high low style like the sketch was to add some hills.   So here it is my feeble take of the fun Tuesday Morning Sketches #775.  At least I can use it for the new neighbors that just moved in next door.

I’m sure your creation will be fabulous so I’m excited to see what you make for Tuesday Morning Sketches this week!!

Tuesday Morning Sketches #774

 Hi again! 

Happy Tuesday Morning Sketches #774 day!

I have been meaning to make sympathy cards for two reasons.  One is I asked a friend what type of cards does she use the most so I could make some for her and unfortunately her answer was get well and sympathy.  :o(  It is the case when you get to be a certain age that we need those much more often.

Anyway so I made her one of these then I made another for myself so that I have one when I need it rather than making during a sad time.  Not sure what one I’ll keep and what one to give her, just thinking it doesn’t really matter.  The second one I used clear embossing to resist the ink and of course the first one I simply stamped with ink.  

I’ve been using Neena White card stock- it’s quite heavy for my bases.  the other card stock and stamps/ink are from CTMH.  One current thing that may still be available since I purchased fairly recently from the pretty Through the Trees 6 x 6 designer pad by Melissa Lowry (Craft Consortium). It has so many vivid deep toned patterns that are both beautiful and cute.

So you may be seeing a few more in the near future. I whatever  the topic of your card I hope you create it with this easy and fun sketch with us over at Tuesday Morning Sketches!!

Tuesday Morning Sketches #773

Hi & happy Tuesday!

It’s time for  Tuesday Morning Sketches #773.  I love this sketch but I didn’t like my card till I gave it a couple days then looked again and now I think it’s not too shabby at all!  I’m glad I broke down and made a Christmas card, I used an old CTMH kit and Thin Cuts dies.

As you can see other shapes can be substituted for the hexagon (? something -agon lol) when you check out what our fabulous team at Tuesday Morning Sketches created!! Your turn!! Have fun!!

Tuesday Morning Sketches #772

Hi and happy Tuesday Morning Sketches day!  

Had the sheer pleasure of having my grandaughter for a sleep over so made this one really quick again. I used old CTMH stamp set and Sawyer paper.  Feels good to use some older stash.

Hope you can join us this week for Tuesday Morning Sketches #772!!

Sorry for the wonky photography :o/

Tuesday Morning Sketches #771

Hi!!  

Here’s me hanging on to summer for Tuesday Morning Sketches #771.  I keep thinking that I should make a Christmas card at least once a month but just haven’t quite conjured up sufficient desire yet. Especially when school has started again so everything starts focusing on fall, but I just love summer and summer colors way to much to give them up early.

So what’s your favorite season? So far as enjoying seasons I really love them all but as for colors I love Spring/Summer the most.

So now it’s time for you to have fun with  Tuesday Morning Sketches #771!! Can’t wait to see your take!
