Sketch Challenge

A couple goals that I set for myself this month were....get my stampin' blog up and running, check! And to participate in one of the many card "challenges" out there. I found this website and thought this sketch challenge would be fun. Here's what I came up with! It's a man card! Man cards are so tough for me and I didn't even intend for it to be so masculine, so I am very proud. If you want to learn how to fold the little oragami shirt, keep checking back, I will be using this technique in a class!

Laundry? Who? What?

So....I went downstairs to grab a load of laundry out. Did I get lost? YES. I went into my scrap room and started to pick up and finish a few odds and ends projects. Made a couple cards...ha ha! This is a creation fromt tonight. It is "scraplifted" from an idea I saw somewhere. I really really liked the rich razzleberry, pink, and brown combo! I also love the Aviary stamp set! I would love anything that had "tweeters" in it! After I stamped for a couple of hours...I remembered and grabbed a load of laundry to hurry and fold. Missions accomplished.
