Sketch Frenzy Friday - October 15th

Another week.........come and gone! Less than one week until my girly weekend away!! w00t! I am off to a Scrapbook Retreat next weekend with some girlfriend's.......and I can't wait!! I have been counting sleeps for MONTHS!!

Onto this week's sketch frenzy Friday sketch........this is what we were given to play with this week!

At first glance, I was actually SCARED of this sketch. I had no idea what the heck I was gonna do with it!! And then the scrap heavens opened up and the lil' light came on and I made this gorgeous card in response!!

I love it when I start out feeling un-inspired and come up with a work of art! I LOVE this card :-)

Now don't forget to head over and see what Tina Taves and see what she has done with this sketch. And as always, from there you can carry on with the blog tour and pay a visit to the entire team!

Motivational Monday Challenge - Feb 22

Yesterday I made this Birthday Card and I love how it looks so much that I want to see what all of YOU come up with!!


So......your mission, should you choose to accept it is to create a Birthday Card using the following colors: Real Red, Brilliant Blue and Crushed Curry. Feel free to add the neutral of your choice! (And as always, if you don't have Stampin Up product.....or those particular colors....then just come up with a color scheme that is close and it will still count :)

Hope you have the time to play along this week!

Happy Valentine's Day Stampers!!

My husband is away this Valentine's Day so I am spending the evening Stamping instead of with him....and I have already finished up 2 cards! YAY! My girlfriend Heather and I are actually stamping together, virtually! We do this every once in awhile......when we can't get together to stamp in person :)

Anyway......here are a couple of the cards that I have made tonight! And they are NOT Valentine's!!

How did YOU spend your Valentine's Day? Happy Heart Day to all!!

P.S. Watch for my Motivational Monday challenge I will be posting tomorrow :) I have decided to get back into posting them weekly!

Thanks for Stampin' with Tess!
