Well let's see, I'm Mom to Victoria and Mitchell, wife to Dick; I'm special to all three, who are special to me,and that makes me the Luckiest Person on Earth. Victoria is married to Andew Knipp. I love being a mother-in-law. Hope he loves his mother-in-law. I love the comfort of being home. I'm blessed with a huge craft room, and an endless desire to create. One of my favorite things in this life is meeting people. I have the gift of gab, and can talk to most anyone.

I (Heart) 2 Stamp Challenge - Sketch For You to Try




Haven’t posted for a while. May & June seem so busy. I have loved the pretty weather. I’m a summer lover; live for this time of year. Got my garden out - twice. That is a long story. Weather related. Got the pool ready to go - Waiting on warmer water. Flowers planted - Need mulch. I just feel like everything is working out. Keeping busy, which is good for me.

I made this card for the challenge on Jen del Muro’s blog - Sketch For You to Try posted last Saturday, May 30th. This sketch has been fun. I liked the lay out and it was a good sketch for me to get back into cardmaking again with. I have missed crafting, but just had so much to do.
The main image is from Whipper Snapper Designs, Shelly Comisky, Sugar n Spice. Love the characters. The images are so fun to color. This is colored using watercolor pencils. White folded card is Papertrey Ink white cardstock, gray paper from a pack I don’t know the name of, and I used Bazzill purple bling behind the image. The sentiment is from Inkadinkado Brenda Walton set of Chelsea Sentiments. I used little gems or blings on the right lower hand corner and on the white strip of paper on the front of the card. The inside is decorated with a piece of Bazzill cardstock and scrap purple Gingham.

Thank you so much for "hopping" by, and come back often. I hope you have a wonderful weekend! Happy Stamping!

Toota-loo,
Karen
