Card Sketch #19

Today we have yet another round sketch. This will be the last one for a little while. I had drawn up these sketches perhaps three months ago and I don't see another one in the group for awhile.

I want to personally thank Trudi for this weeks card sample to go along with the sketch.

Have a great day everyone!

Recipe Challenge #10

These challenges can be used on cards or layouts.

I will give a list of three items that must be used on a card or layout. When you complete a card or layout with these specific items, then you can post that you completed the challenge in the comment section. I would love to see all the cards and layouts you create using this recipe.

Now, I know the question is going to be asked, so I am going to answer it now. Are you limited to only the items listed? The answer is No. You can use as many items on your layout or card as you wish. But the minimum on it must be what is listed in the recipe.

Create a card or layout using the following items:
  • Buttons
  • The Color Blue
  • Glitter
As usual, if you would like to share your take on this challenge, link it up in the comment section.
Have a great day Everyone! I'll be back tomorrow with a new Card Sketch.

Journaling Challenge #6

Happy Friday Everyone!

Yesterday was a holiday in the part of Germany where I live. And today, the kids are out of school still and my husband took the day off work. I was able to sit down and scrap for about 2 hours. I have a total of 16 2-page layouts I need to finish for a layout swap I am in. So I am trying to get those finished by next week.

Now for todays challenge, I want to see some Hidden Journaling. Or should I say, I don't want to see your journaling. :) Some examples are Use a file folder and have your journaling on the inside, Tuck a journaling tag behind a picture or even a Match book with the journaling inside. Really, the possibilities are endless.

I can't wait to see what you come up with. I'd love you to link up your layout when you complete this challenge if you feel like sharing.

Have a Fabulous Weekend!

Card Sketch #18

First off, I am going to apologize for not getting this up sooner. Today is a holiday here in Germany and I have been real busy in the kitchen all morning and afternoon. I made a Turkey with all the fixings. Think about how busy you are at Thanksgiving and that is exactly what I have been doing today. We had friends over to enjoy the feast and it was a lot of fun even though a lot of work.

Here is this weeks sketch. Have fun with it! Feel free to link up your card in the comment section if you would like to share.

Have a great Thursday, what is left of it!
