We do this only once a year so I really was looking forward to it and had high hopes for my contribution to our TMS Anything Goes challenge this week but I didn't pull off my original plan. However this is something I've been meaning to do for a while. I thought I would get a bit more added to this Priority Mail envelope but this was it for this week. I had to keep them simple because I need 7 of them.
The stamp is from CTMH, I stamped with Memento black ink and colored with Prima brush markers and Stabilo fine tip markers for the teeny tiny lights. Plus I added a little Sakura gel pen for the white highlights. I thought I was tricky doing the lights in blue and red like the Priority Mail colors. I was originally going to do a christmas tree and that would have given it a pop of another color but the friends that I'm sending this too are into woodsy stuff.
Hubby had his knee replaced on Thursday and low and behold he got out of the hospital a day early on this Saturday instead of Sunday so I had to scramble back & forth so many times to the hospital and also with working OT well...you know me I can't keep up sometimes when life is normal, let alone add home care people and visitors and a patient to attend to added into the mix.
I sooooo appreciate you stopping by, I really really do!!
I hope you get to play along with us this week at Tuesday Morning Sketches!

Ahhhh what a relief I'm pretty happy with my card this week. Our great sketch is by Janice, I accidentally left off the little embellishments and I would add them but I don't want to try and photograph the card again. I think it took me longer to get a decent pic than it took to make the card! Sorry about the shadows.
Our sponsor this week is All Dressed Up. The prize is a digital image of the winner's choice. My image is from All Dressed up, the die came with my magnetic base plate which I think is American Crafts, the folder I think is from Hobby Lobby Darice maybe, I've had it a few years. The little crochet button has been in my stash for a LOOOOONG time and the snowflake was cut with a Close to My Heart Circuit cartridge.
Hello, it's your friendly neighborhood ditz reporting today with her card for Tuesday Morning Sketches #432.
I've really been struggling with all I've been juggling lately, in fact I just noticed that I never added my card to our site last week. Plus this week I added it so late I'm not sure I did it in time. My first try at this was a major - FAIL. Have you ever had an idea you felt so sure should work but you just couldn't seem to pull it off? Well that's what happened to me.
This is my second attempt with this idea with the images and paper from our sponsor at We Are 3. I don't think I did their cute stuff justice at all but I hope you check out what the rest of the team made because they really rocked the sketch and supplies!!
I hope you get to play along with us this week at Tuesday Morning Sketches!
