Sorry Peeps!

I didnt forget the Saturday Sketch I just got caught up in the shopping I did yesterday, and was busy “playing” so didnt get to post it. Then, I spent some time with the family today. Didnt want to upset them so had to do my MOMMY duty.

Anyway better late than never right?

My Peeps, My Friends

So here it is! Do ya love it? I think its so cheery! Just what I was going for. Love when an idea on paper “works” in reality.

Here is the original sketch.

This layout is especially great for those smaller images you may have collecting dust or tag style stamps. I used my stamps from Green Grass for this one. They are Lil Monsters and Card Greetings . You can also view my card here

The American Crafts ribbon helped me get inspired! I love attaching ribbon with brads, onto a card. Its “different” you know what mean. PLUS its great use of those scraps.

My colors are real red, pumpkin pie, chocolate chip and cool caribbean.

Used my prismacolor markers to color the image. I thought the birdie looked like he was lookin at the other birdie. I don’t know! I just like tha layout and overall execution of this. Of course, I used my Sprite Primas. If you dont have ANY of these you are CRAZY! They are awesome! Love them. The brads are by SEI.

So I hope you get to try the challenge. If so please link it here so I can view it and comment.

Try using your ribbon to inspire your colors. Id LOVE to see what you come up with.

Thanks for playing.

Thats how I feel about ALL of you!

And my New! Lizzie Anne Designs set.

So…….I made the mistake of going on www.ribbonsandbowsohmy.com  DONT CLICK IT!

Anyway too much money spent and 2 days later I got some AMAZING ribbon. I loved the colors in the ribbon tab I used on this card, and it inspired my colors here.

This flower is the Jolies Fleur from Lizzie Anne, and the sentiment is from Sketched Sentiments. Oh I just love them!!!! I of course used my Glue pad, and Martha Stewart glitter in black. I doodled the border.

The Fleur is colored with my Prismacolor markers. Lovin those too. Of course added some bling to the center of the flower. Have I told you I love this set yet? Well I’ll say it again! LOL! I love how it can be elegant, and funky! Lots a cool possibilities with this set let me tell ya.

Hope you like it!

I learned about lots of things I now need to get! I did get off to a good start when I went to the CKU expo in Manchester on Saturday!

My friend Paulette and I, spent a HEAVENLY 5 hours shopping. This is a photo of what I got! Some of the paper is just stacked cause my table was just too small! LOL!
