Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #187

Hello!
Happy Wednesday!  This week is flying by already!  We had such an amazing long weekend!  The boys went flying Saturday morning then we headed to Niagara Falls Saturday afternoon.  After a great game of mini golf, dinner at the rainforest cafe and a ride on the Skywheel we headed to the Greg Frewin Magic Show!  It was amazing.  The boys were in awe!  I mean, how do you make someone disappear and then replace them with a tiger?  The boys did a little quad copter flying with a friend on the weekend and of course there were a few dips in the pool!  Now we are back to winter here and the windchill tonight is supposed to be below zero!

We have a great new sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches this week!  Our amazing hostess is Cindy Lovell!  Cindy is so talented and her cards are so creative!  Hop over to her blog and check out all her fine creations!

I need to have a few birthday cards on hand for some upcoming special events!   I love "The Tweet Life" from Reverse Confetti!  Those birds just make me smile!  I wish I could colour them but I'm not a big fan of colouring and I haven't yet started my collection of Copics!

Supplies:

Cardstock: Whisper White, Strawberry Slush

DSP: Retired scraps from SU!

Stamps: The Tweet Life (Reverse Confetti)

Ink: Memento Black

Other: 4X4 Journal Die (My Creative time), Double Banner Die Confetti Cuts, The Tweet Life Confetti Cuts, Basic Rhinestones, Dimensionals

 They aren't twins at all!!!

 My and my sweet Jake

Quad Copter Fun

Thanks so much for stopping by today!  Please head on over to the Freshly Made Sketches blog and check out the fabulous cards the design team has come up with!  They are amazing!

I hope you have a wonderful day!

Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #182

Hello!
Happy Wednesday!  I hope you're having a great week!  Spring has finally arrived in Canada and we are enjoying some beautiful weather!  Our trees our finally budding and the robins are singing their happy song!  Thankfully they sing outside my window early and not outside Jacob's!!!

We have a great new sketch at Freshly Made Sketches this week!  Our fabulous hostess is Rita Wright!  Rita is our resident colouring queen!  She does such an amazing job!  I think she should offer classes to the others...well, maybe just me!!!

Now, I kinda didn't have the sketch in front of me when I made my card.  I made that middle panel a little large and didn't offset it.  I also put the sentiment box on the wrong side.  I may get kicked of the design team for this one!!!!

Shortly before we went away I received this fun new stamp set from Reverse Confetti - The Tweet Life!  I love it!  The little birds are just so cute!  I have another little bird inside my card that I totally forgot to take a picture of!  I tried colouring these sweeties but unfortunately I do not possess the colouring gene and they looked TERRIBLE!

Supplies:
Cardstock: Whisper White, Real Red, Basic Grey, Early Espresso
DSP: Brights DSP Stack, Stacked with Love DSP Stack
Stamps: The Tweet Life (Reverse Confetti)
Ink: Basic Black
Other:  The Tweet Life Confetti Cuts, Dimensionals

Thanks so much for stopping by today!  I really hope you get a chance to pop over to the Freshly Made Sketches blog and check out the amazing cards the Design Team has created for you!  We can't wait to see what you create this week!

Have an amazing day!

Jen
