Tuesday Morning Sketches #704

Yikes, crazy me here again, just going to share Tuesday Morning Sketches #705 with you super fast!  This is the Stamp of the Month right now at Close to My Heart so that means that you can get it for only $5 with a $50 order.  I love it so much I can’t believe I almost let the month go by.  

The reason I’m so out of wack is that now Chewy, my other boxer who we lost his sister in October is definitely in his last days.  The tumor that we had removed last November is back and it is no longer resectable and has suddenly started growing really fast - it is huge. :o(

So creating is very good therapy but so hard to fit in and get inspired. I hope you are having happy days not sad and that I get to see what you create soon at Tuesday Morning Sketches!!

Tuesday Morning Sketches #703

OMG give me a week off and I take two!!  Here is my card for Tuesday Morning Sketches #703 - late because I totally spaced it. I’m still working with the stuff that jumped in my card at Joanne’s before Easter.  This pretty patterned paper is from BoBunny and the cardstock color is Shortbread from Close to My heart.  
Your turn to check out our team and participants wonderful work over at Tuesday Morning Sketches!!

Hello!

Thanks so much for stopping by for Tuesday Morning Sketches #702.  I used more of the “hopped in my cart” stuff again.  It’s a really fun sketch with a really fun twist! You see, this week is special - we are collaborating with Double Trouble Challenges.  Please visit their blog for all the details.  But if you'd like to play along, be sure to follow the theme of ROYGBIV - use traditional rainbow colors or change them up to pastels for Easter cards.  Our challenge will run for two weeks so you have until 4/16 to play along with both challenges!

This will be sooooo fun!!

                                      

Tuesday Morning Sketches #701

What to say what to say??  Well HELLO again for starters and it is already time for Tuesday Morning Sketches #701.  Where did the week go???

This sketch was more fun than I even expected, and I always expect to have fun making cards :)

I had a few minutes in between appointments one day week before last and strolled around Joann’s so of course I couldn’t stroll out of there with nothing in hand, lol.  This cute paper and matching little die cut bouquets were among the items that jumped in my cart.

Now it’s your turn to join us at Tuesday Morning Sketches!!

Tuesday Morning Sketches #700

It’s time for Tuesday Morning Sketches # 700!!  Yep you saw that right SEVEN HUNDRED!!! I have not been participating since the beginning but I have for a few years!! I just love our team and our friends who participate with us!! THANK YOU!!!

I received this cute Washi tape from my secret Santa for  Christmas and finally got it out and put it to use. Several of the designs look quite mermaidy (my own word) but I wasn’t sure it would be thaaat noticeable on this card but that is the first thing my colleague at work said when I showed it to her.  Oh well, it’s ok it does kinda limit my use for it though.  Not all the designs have the scallops so I’ll try making something next time without those.  

Without further ado…here is my card and I’m excited to see yours!

Tuesday Morning Sketches #699

BLINK!!  Here we are again time for another great sketch  from Tuesday Morning Sketches - it is number 699!

I purchased this Georgie paper in bulk from CTMH probably 8 or so years ago so I was happy to use some of it to make matching envelopes too.  Thank you once again for stopping by - get busy having fun with this nice and easy sketch.  See you soon at Tuesday Morning Sketches and when I get to visit what you create!!

Happy Tuesday!!!  

It’s time for our first new sketch of the year -  Tuesday Morning Sketches # 698!  

Can you believe it is March already?? It has just been sinking into my brain that I have three birthday boys and a birthday girl this this month in my family and also 2 friends and a coworker -whew!! Seven cards in one month - oh no!

I made the blue card first and then realized it was almost exactly like Donna’s haha! Great minds think alike right??!! Well I real quick made one with my favorite shabby chic paper that I have already used so much of but I still will be sad when I use up the very last bits. I had to change the orientation because I didn’t have enough of the background paper for a piece that would keep the pattern right vertically. The paper is Carta Bella Flora No.3 and my dies are CTMH.  

Thank you so much for stopping by, enjoy this sketch and I’ll visit your creation soon after you join us at Tuesday Morning Sketches this week!
