Hey again!

 Well it certainly appears I am making up for lack of posts this week, with 3 today! I have to quickly get this up, because the kids are needing bathed, and fed…..etc….

This week I managed to participate in Amy’s sketch Challenge. YAY! I love Amy’s sketches because they can always be so easily adapted to a Scrapbook page, which is such a bonus!

Okay so here is Amy’s sketch for the past week:

Love this one! Here is what I put together:

Firstly I wanted to start with a masculine card, because they are often hard to put together. I have used the Lovely as a tree stamp set, and weathered background stamp. The DS paper is from the Apple cider pack, and I have used the earth elements buttons. I stamped up my tree with my markers, (choc chip, really rust, and pumpkin pie) and used my spritzer tool to get the splotches. I have used my sanding block, and cutter kit to rough up all the edges.

Seeing Christmas is nearly upon us…..again. I wanted to get working on some cards! I have used the Wintergreen DS paper pack, and the Season of joy stamp set from Stampin’Up. I added the rhinestone brads, and glitter for bling. The base cardstock is Artichoke.

Don’t you just love those cute freckles!!!!!……..

So like I said Amy’s Sketches work great for Scrapbooking, so I just had to make one didn’t I???!!!! I have used Basic grey cardstock, and the DS paper is from the Spring Break pack from Stampin’Up. I added lots of paper piercing for effect and to create borders, and added 3 jumbo eyelets in Antique Brass. Lastly I added the greeting which is from the True Friend stamp set, but I inked it up with my markers, eliminating the “thank” and then I added the word Love from the Basic phrases stamp set. I cut it out and mounted it with dimensionals.

So there you have it……I have to fly, but I will be back over the weekend…..talking of weekend…..have yourself a FAB-O one!

Talk soon!
