TESC Thank You




Good Saturday Morning Peeps! Sorry for the long silence from me this week, the power cord to my laptop quit working on Tuesday. I had to get a new one that had to be special ordered and even tho I paid extra for overnight shipping it did not arrive here til yesterday afternoon. In the mean time I did get alot of cleaning and sewing done, I have been making a ton of those rag purses that are wildly popular right now. They are alot of fun to make and oh so easy even tho I don't like sewing all that much, these are fun.

Well, on to today's card. I used this weeks sketch at Taylored Expressions Blog.

I used rich razzleberry and crushed curry card stock for this one. The DS paper is from the Razzleberry Lemonade paper pack. The flowers come from the "Kind & Caring Thoughts" stamp set which is a hostess set. The sentiment used is from the "Short & Sweet" stamp set. I think now that the card is done I should have used a sentiment that was a bit bigger, this one seems a bit lost on the panel, whatcha think? The button is from my stash and really does match the crushed curry, even tho the picture makes it look like it doesn't. I added a clip and a bit of razzleberry ribbon to the upper corner.

Well, that is all from me, be sure to check back tomorrow for my Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge Sample!




Thanks for stopping by and HAPPY STAMPING!!!

Welcome back to the internet world. Missed you while you were gone. Your card is gorgeous as usual. Love all the colors. I especially love the stamp set you used.

Love this, Vicki! That flower image is so fun and your colours are wonderful. I hear you about being away. With the kids on a two week Spring Break my stamping time is just about nil. However, we have had a great time together and enjoyed heading down town to some of the Olympic venues they have held over for the Paralymmpics (zipline was soooo fun!!) Glad to have you back and look forward to this week's sketch card :D

Your card is beautiful as always. I check your blog every day because I love your creations and after a few days with no posts, I started worrying about you even though I don't personally know you! So glad you are up and running with your computer again. Thank you for sharing your wonderful projects with us!

Gorgeous card! Those darn power cords cost almost as much as the laptop! Love the card. The DSP in the background with the scallop trim punch looks like a window shade.
