2 Sketches 4 You Card ~ May 18th

Happy Monday! I hope you are enjoying your day off if you have one. It's dark and rainy here (there was snow this morning). A good day to do some cards. This week at 2 Sketches 4 You the sponsor is ShortCuts the sister site to SheetLoad. Alicia has some great clear and frosted card bases and gift card holders. They are fun to play with. So this week that's what I used. I actually did a card and a gift card holder.

Here is the card I did. I used a clear ShortCuts base, Basic Grey Lime Ricky, Cuttlebug dies, Spellbinders dies, Stickles, Kaiser rhinestones, Making Memories tiny alphas and my sewing machine.



And a different view:



And here is the gift card holder I did using the same paper and items. Pretty quick and easy.



Well that's it for today. I'm hoping the weather is going to get better this week and I can enjoy some time outside. Have a great day!

2 Sketches 4 You Card ~ May 5th

Good evening, it's a rare evening post for me! Tonight I have my 2 Sketches 4 You card. I haven't done them for a couple of weeks, it's just been so busy around here. I finally got to this weeks this afternoon. I used some My Mind's Eye paper, Kaiser Pearls, Savvy'n'Sassy ribbon, Prima Flowers, Fiskars Border punch and my sewing machine. I love the weight of this paper.



I'll be back tomorrow with some SheetLoad news. I've also got a bunch of my Savvy'n'Sassy projects to show you over the next few days. Have a great evening.

2 Sketches 4 You Card ~ April 13th

Good afternoon. I hope you had a great Easter. We had fun at our house, unfortunately the Easter bunny is no more here. My 6 year old announced to me last week that he knew the ins and outs of the Easter bunny. Oh well, we still had a great time. Brunch and lots of fun.

Today I have my 2 Sketches 4 You card. I used the new Chatterbox paper, Bazzill Flowers, Prima flowers, Fiskars border punch, Savvy'n'Sassy ribbon, and my sewing machine. I think it turned out bright and fun.



Well that's it for today, I'll be back tomorrow with my Sisterhood of Scrap project that I did for Deanne's challenge. Have a great evening.

2 Sketches 4 You Card ~ April 7th & SheetLoad news

Good evening. I'm running behind this week. It's been super busy the last 2 days. I'm so excited some spring like weather is here. It's bright and sunny and it's making me happy. Today I have my 2 Sketches 4 You card and some SheetLoad news to pass on to you.

First my card. This one was a toughie for me. Not sure why and I'm not totally impressed with it but here it is anyways, LOL. I used Pink Paislee paper, Savvy'n'Sassy ribbon, Inkadinkado stamps, spellbinders, Copic markers, Heidi Swapp cherry bling, Kaiser rhinestones and my sewing machine.



Now on for the SheetLoad news. Now if you like sketches (and if you are looking at this post you probably do *wink*) then you should head over to SheetLoad of Cards. If you create a card based on the April SheetLoad sketch link it to SheetLoad for a chance to win a stamp sets from The Greeting Farm. You can find more details about this contest here.

Ok that's it for today. I'll be back tomorrow with my Creatively Yours layout and a new thing I'm trying. Have a great evening.

2 Sketches 4 You Card ~ March 30th

Good afternoon. I hope you all had a great weekend. I got to enjoy Vivaldi's Four Seasons performed by the Calgary Philharmonic on Saturday night. It was awesome.

I have my 2 Sketches 4 You card this afternoon. I've been trashing my stash of Basic Grey and I was playing with the Boxer line. I must admit when I first saw this paper, I fell in love, however, I've been having a hard time using it. Not sure why. Anyways here is my take and it also includes Prima flowers, Kaiser flowers and rhinestones, Savvy'n'Sassy ribbon, making memories tiny alphabets, Fiskars border punch and my sewing machine.



Also, I have a little tutorial going up on the Savvy'n'Sassy blog on April 1st. You can check it out on the blog here. If you attended the March Madness crop, you got a sneak peak!

That's it for today. I'll be back later in the week with some more cards and creations. Have a happy Monday.

2 Sketches 4 You ~ March 23rd

It's Monday again! I've been busy trying to catch up from the weekend. The boys had a day off on Friday and that totally threw off my schedule. Today I have my 2 Sketches 4 You card. I'm trying very hard to keep up with it as it will mean I will have 52 cards at the end of the year! And it's a card a week. So here is my take on the wonderful sketch. I used the Basic Grey Marakkech line, Savvy'n'Sassy ribbon, Making Memories tiny alphabets, Bazzill blossoms and Doodlebug brads.



Well that's it for today. Just a quick post. I've been baking muffins all afternoon and the oven is calling me. Have a great evening!

2 Sketches 4 You Card ~ March 16th

Good afternoon. Sorry I was MIA late last week. I ended up getting pretty sick and was in bed for most of it. So no scrapping for me. Today has been eventful. I've been trying to catch up and take care of everything that got left by the wayside last week. Then I did something really stupid and accidentally deleted all my scrappy files. My wonderful DH is working on getting them back, cross your fingers and toes that he can work a miracle. Not really sure what I was thinking at the time, I think I was distracted while I was trying to clean up what I've got on my computer. I'm not technically savvy, LOL.

Anyways on to my 2 Sketches 4 you card. I use some of the new My Mind's Eye Penny Lane paper and die cuts on this one. I also used Prima Flowers, Savvy'n'Sassy ribbon, Heidi Grace pins, Kaiser pearls, Doodlebug brads and my sewing machine.



I'm hoping to be back in the scrapping grove this week, now that I'm feeling better. Have a great Monday and hopefully I'll be back tomorrow with another creation.

2 Sketches 4 You ~ March 10th

Good morning. I got to my 2 Sketches 4 You card done last night. I went quick and easy this week. And the Basic Grey Urban Prairie makes it so easy. It's just so darn pretty. I also used a die cut from Elle's studio, Prima flowers, Making Memories brads and alphas and Savvy'n'Sassy ribbon.



Another quick post today. I'm playing some catch up here now that my boys are finally both better and back to school. I got lots of yummy goodies this weekend and I can't wait to dig into them. I'm hoping to be back later this week with more cards and layouts.

Have a happy Tuesday!

2 Sketches 4 You ~ March 2nd & a RAK

Good Afternoon. Can you believe it's March! I can't. Where has the time gone? Well it's another month and I have my RAK that I promised but first my 2 Sketches 4 You card. I used October Afternoon paper on this one and decided to go with a "school" theme. I also used Savvy'n'Sassy ribbon, MAMBI rhinestones and glossy accents to highlight the apples.



Now for the RAK. This is month 2 of my Savvy'n'Sassy gift certificate giveaways. All you have to do is leave me a comment and I'll enter you into a draw for a $10 gift certificate to Savvy'n'Sassy. Simple as that. I'll draw the winner next Monday.

Well that's it for today. I'm home with a really sick little boy today so I'm off to tend to him.

Happy Monday!

Good afternoon. I hope you all had a fun weekend. I spent yesterday organizing the house. It's not too bad. My pantry looks amazing. I'm sure that will only last until my next grocery trip though, LOL. Today has been crazy busy, I think the next 2 weeks are just going to be like that around here.

I have my 2 Sketches 4 You card to share with you today. I decided to go bright and cheery with this one. I used We Are Memory Keepers Nonsense line, Stampendous Stamps, Savvy'n'Sassy ric rac, spellbinders and my Copic markers.



Well that's it for today, I'll be back tomorrow with a Creatively Yours layout and a some news. Hope you have a great Monday evening.
