Kazan's Sketch 5

Here's my take on Kazan's Sketch this week. There is so much inspiration there, they've truly brought back my interest in cardmaking. I was really thinking I had had enough of this hobby until they came along. Now i can't wait to see each week's sketch. If you've been living under a rock for the past 10 weeks, go check them out.

Happy Monday!

Hope ya'll had a great weekend. I worked all weekend so I am having my weekend now, and boy is it wet!! What a rain we had today, it's good though, it is desperately needed!


I am really bummed out and mad at myself. I had full intentions of submitting for the 2S4Y DT call and had my cards made almost immediately after it was announced. I thought the deadline was July 26th so I hadn't submitted my cards yet. Then last night while checking things out, I realized the deadline was July 19, DOH (said in my best Homer Simpson voice)!!! What a dummy. Oh well, hopefully they'll put another call out in 3 months. I definitely won't fool around then!! Anyway, here are the cards I made for their DT challenge. I can't wait to see who they pick for their team, I am sure it will be amazing.

CPS #73

Wow, I've been a cardmaking fool this weekend. I haven't had a creative streak like this for a long, long time! Some I can't post yet, but I will when I can. I made this card for CPS #73. I don't always get to play along with their sketches but I was in a groove!! I like this one but you cannot tell from teh photo that the cream layer is popped off of the green layer. It looks nicer in real life. Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Saturday!

What a glorious day it is shaping up to be. Our humidity finally broke yesterday and today looks beautiful. I hate the humidity, it takes all the good out of me.

Here's this weeks take on 2 Sketches 4 You. In case you haven't figured it out yet, I am ADDICTED. I can't believe I made a Christmas card and it's only July. That'll probably be the only one til October, ha. I just love this paper though and had to use it. Thanks for stopping by. Have a great weekend everyone!!

Better late than never...

I guess. I made this card last Saturday to put up for the 2 Sketches 4 You sketch challenge, but I was having camera issues and the photo wouldn't upload. Oh well, I wanted to post it anyway!! Hope you like it and thanks so much for stopping by!!

Hey, hey!!

Well, seems like all I blog about lately is 2 Sketches 4 You!! haha. Love those sketches. Here's this weeks interpretation of Kazan's sketch. I used a mish mash of stuff; some Scenic Route, some Daisy D's, some Basic Grey and various flowers and ribbon. I am not sure if the scallops are working here or not, I really liked the direction it was heading in until I added them, now I am unsure.


I got some awesome news on Friday...I've got a job, hurrah!! It is a one year term position at a nearby hospital. I am so excited, my hard work in school this past year has paid off!!
