Can you believe it? I am posting!!!!

Today’s sketch challenge hostess is Jenn Balcer. Make sure you check out her blog and post the link of your sample there.

 I got my first order from the new catalog and actually played with it to make a sample for today’s sketch. It’s hard for me. I am in summer mode. I read, I take the kids to the pool (when it’s warm enough) and try to figure out the new area. I already found a hairdresser for the kids and me. Tomorrow we are checking out an orthodontist…..Next week we will go and check out a private school for the two younger ones. Austin will start highschool in Fairborn.

Have a great weekend! Hugs and smiles

I am a total flaker again, but…I finished the last book in my series. Now I have to wait until #12 comes out this November.

The book series is called Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan. If you like fantasy, this might a book series for you.

I am not sure if I will get to stamp today either. Katrina and I are going to the outlet malls first, then to see Ghost of Girlfriends past. I can’t believe I am going to the first showing on the first day of the movie release. I usually wait a whole week before going to see new movies. I don’t like crowds. Oh well…

Have a wonderful weekend. Hugs and smiles

Sorry girls.

Again, I am flaking out! I will get back in the swing of things….I just don’t know when.  The last days of school are approaching and we only have 5 weeks left before the movers arrive. The sun is shining and I am stuck in a 11 book series (started the last book now). I have a hard time stamping!!! I figure I better enjoy the summer weather while I can. Plus I am working out 5 days a week again to get rid of my extra weight I gained in Germany. (excuses, excuses…I know).

Anyway….

Sorry about not posting for a while. I had a wonderful time back home in Germany. The trip home was another story. They changed out flights from 2 to 3 legs home. Then one was delayed and we missed our flight back to Fort Walton. We had to spend the night in Atlanta and had to get up super early for the flight home.

I had a horrid time getting over my jet lag and now I have a hard time getting back to stamping. So I will be sitting this challenge out.

Thanks to everyone that wished me Happy Birthday and/or send me a card. That was really sweet of you and made my otherwise pretty horrid birthday better!

Today Sharon Harnist is the hostess of the Weekend Sketch Challenge. 

She created this sketch for us.

It was not an easy one for me.

Bev Rousch came over last evening and we tackled this sketch together. We had a lot of fun, although all we did was struggling to finish a card for this sketch.

We both turned the sketch, added a slim strip of designer paper and worked from there.

I started out with my main image.

I stamped the duck from Wagon Full of Fun twice on Watercolor Paper and colored it with So Saffron, Pumpkin Pie and Always Artichoke Marker and Aqua Painter.

I cut the wing out of one image and the entire image from the second stamped image.

The wing was attached to the full image with dimensionals.  The entire image was adhered to a 1 7/8″ x 2 3/8″ piece of Whisper White cardstock. I doodled a border on that before taping it to a scallop rectangle that I had cut out of Artichoke cardstock with rectangle Nestabilities.

The next two layers are a 2 1/2″ x 3″ piece of Parisian Breeze Specialty Paper layered on a 1/4″ bigger piece of Basic Black cardstock. The designer paper was sanded down and paper pierced.

The card base is a 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ piece of Baja Breeze cardstock. The edges were lightened with Whisper White Craft ink.

Next is a 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of Basic Black cardstock. The Saffron designer paper is from the (way to early retired) Parisian Summer Designer paper, the Artichoke paper is from the new To The Nines Specialty Paper

Where both papers meet I added a small strip of Whisper White cardstock that was punched with the Eyelet Border Punch.  White Satin Ribbon was tied above it (Thank you Bev!!!) and two 5/16″ white brads were added to the upper right corner.

The sentiment was stamped in Black Stazon on Whisper White, punched out with the Window Word Punch and taped the the lower left.
