Some stitching and some cardmaking....

I finally jumped on the bandwagon and stitched the Blackbird Designs freebie and honored my mom. I plan to frame and hang in my craft room since I spend 90% of my free time in there. Even made a little card to send to my Mom to let her know I am thinking about her.


2 Sketches 4 You.....
Finally got a chance to participate in the challenge over at 2S4U. A pretty simple card, but it was nice to do some papercrafting for a change.

Use It challenge....
Also decided to participate in the Use It challenge. I only got 2 of the 3 items....forgot the chipboard...oops!

Oh well...simple but it was fun to play with paper again! Thanks for looking and happy crafting....

2S4U Sketch #14....

Better late than never. Here is my take on this week's sketch at
2Sketches4U. Make sure you check out all of the great cards for this week's sketch. The DT cards are fabulous. This started out as a Christmas card and somehow turned into a birthday card.

2S4U Sketch#14...

I decided to make a card using the Kazan's wonderful sketch at 2Sketches4You. This is hopefully the first of many Christmas cards I hope to make for this holiday season. Hope everyone has a happy Thanksgiving holiday and please remember our troops who make celebrations like these possible.

2S4U Sketch #13

I really love these sketches at 2Sketches4You and this is my take on Kazan's sketch 13. The temps are still reasonable during the day and chilly at night so I am still soaking up the Fall feeling. Now ... to shift gears to Christmas cards!

2S4U Sketch#12

I like this sketch from 2Sketches4You and decided to make a birthday card for my brother, who celebrated this past week. Better late than never is my motto! The paper is from DCWV Fall Stack. The patterned paper has a light blue background but it doesn't come through on the pic unfortunately.

2 Sketches 4 You: Laura's Sketch 11

I found this wonderful blog this week and decided to give the card challenge a try. I decided to make a simple card with some left over paper and I love the colors.
