sweet sunday sketch challenge #15


Good morning - It's time for another Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge! Here is the deal: make a card with this layout and use Mr. Linky down at the end of my post to enter your card. On Thursday at 2 PM (Mountain Time), I'll randomly select one card to feature on my blog. So, as long as your card is linked in the Mr. Linky box by 2 PM Thursday, your card will be in the drawing. Be sure to link directly to the blog post or gallery image which features your card. You may post a picture of the sketch on your blog, but please save the image to your computer first. Use the keyword SSSC15 if you plan to post your card at SplitcoastStampers.

Thank you all so much for your birthday wishes! I had a fantastic night out with my husband - we ate dinner at Hibachi Japanese Steakhouse and I thought someone was going to lose an eye. Yep, that's the mom in me - I just can't leave her behind, ha! It was amazing to see the chef flip all the food and utensils all over the place. Very fun and very stuffed by the end of dinner. Then I got to open my card and inside was our grocery money - I had to laugh at that. Basically he was telling me "lets go shopping". I've been wanting a new camera for SO long, so he took me to pick one out. Isn't he the best? Very nice birthday. Thanks love.

Ok, on to my card - I've been in a baby blue/navy blue mood lately and here once again is another blue card. I wanted to make something for Mother's Day to sell in my Etsy store for a while and I finally managed to finish one. I used my oval Nestabilities for this card (another new goodie for me) along with some of my favorite flower punches - use these ALL the time.

You may have noticed my new Sweet Sunday logo on my sketch and I've made a badge for you to put on your blog if you'd like. It's in my sidebar and you can get the HTML by clicking on "want this badge".




Ok, now it's your turn - have fun!!
Karen
