Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #186
Hello!
Happy Wednesday! Can you believe it's Wednesday already?! Wow! Where did the week go? Where is May going? My oldest son's 9th birthday is fast approaching. I don't know where the time has gone!
We have had a chilly start to the week here. We had a lovely weekend and suddenly the winds have blown in some mighty cold air. I am looking forward to that warm summery weather coming back very soon!
We have a new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches this week! I have the privilege of being this week's hostess. I always feel so inferior next to the talented group of ladies that I work with! What an honour to get to create cards with these gals every week!
Yup, that's a circle you see on that sketch! Can you believe I did that?! I am trying to cure myself of that aversion to circles! Actually, truth be told, I knew the sentiment I wanted to use when I came up with the sketch and knew it would fit nicely in a circle - I didn't realize my circle would turn out so big!
Supplies:
Cardstock: Whisper White, Elegant Eggplant
Stamps: In a Big Way (Reverse Confetti)
Ink: Elegant Eggplant
Other: Big Polka Dot TIEF, Stitched Rectangles (Lil' Inkers), Circle Punch, Edge Dies (Lil' Inkers - honestly I can't remember what they're called!), Basic Rhinestones, Dimensionals
Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you have a great week!
Please head over to the Freshly Made Sketches Blog to see the cards the Design Team has created for you! They are amazing (as always!)!
Have a fabulous day!
