TMS 514 -Be You

Hello Hello! 

Today we have another fun Tuesday Morning Sketch Challenge to play with!  This week's sketch was created by Melissa ~ super easy sketch this week! 

I kept my card simple this week, using flower dies from Tim Holtz, a sentiment from the same set I used last week (Rooted In Nature- from SU). The patterned paper I used for the flowers is from my stash but I do know the blue paper is from October Afternoon. The red gingham ribbon is from Stampin Up. and the bling is from Michael's.

TMS #513 - Thinking of You

Hello Hello! 

Today we have another fun Tuesday Morning Sketch Challenge to play with!  Debbie is the creator of this week's sketch. 

I decided to pull out my new "Rooted in Nature" set from Stampin Up that I got with my hostess benefits.  I used patterned paper from Basic Grey (Origins 6X6) pad, and two ink colors - Vintage Photo and Mowed Lawn (Tim Holtz Distress Inks). I fussy cut the leaves as I am still waiting for my coordinating dies to come (hopefully soon!). I also sponged the sentiment panel with the Mowed Lawn Ink, and added some twine and yellow enamel dots in the upper right hand corner.

GKD Monthly Mix Challenge - Flag Your'e It!

Hello Hello - 

Quick post today, I decided to play along with the Gina K Designs Monthly Mix Challenge with is called "Flag Your'e It". The challenge was to use colors seen in a flag (any flag of your choice) I of course went with our USA flag - used Red, White and Blue. 

For my card I pulled out an old set - Fun Year Round designed by Melanie Munchinger. The sentiment is from a newer set -  Tropical Blooms. I've used this set a lot, I got it when it was part of a StampTV kit.

TMS #512 - Deck The Halls

Hello Hello ~ 

It's time for this week's sketch at Tuesday Morning Sketches! 

I am continuing my Christmas in July theme with a card I created from our Dueling Darlings kit that I received this month from Suzy (my Dazzler's teammate). The Divas received a Christmas in July kit from Deb! It will be fun to see whate everyone creates. The Dueling Darlings is a group of myself and 15 wonderful ladies on Split Coast Stampers. Each month, a hostess sends a card kit to the other 7 ladies in her group. On the 15th we have a "Duel" of sorts. I am a day late - as I wanted to use the kit for this week's TMS sketch as the image fit the sketch perfectly (It was made to be I tell ya!). 

I had fun with this week’s sketch and I hope you try it out! The rest of the DT has some great inspiration to check out too!

TMS #511 - HAPPY 10TH BIRTHDAY Tuesday Morning Sketches

Hello Hello - 

I'm here with another Tuesday Morning Sketch Challenge - and this one is a big one as we are celebrating:

Happy 10th Birthday Tuesday Morning Sketches!

It's so AMAZING to see a sketch challenge blog last this long! It does not happen very often! That being said, here is my card for this week's challenge, I'm adding another card to my Christmas card stash (many of which go to my local Ronald McDonald House). My card has mostly supplies from October Afternoon, with the exception of the ribbon (Stampin Up), Silver snowflake (Stampin Up) and gemstones (Hobby Lobby). 

This sketch is a fun one too! 

Hope you will decide to play along! In addition to our fantastic DT Inspiration, we also have two special guests - Joni Wilson and Sheri Gilson. I know Joni back from my days of being on her Inktegrity Designs Design Team, and Sheri is well known for her fantastic creations as a member of the Gina K Designs DT! I'm so excited they could both play along with us this week! 

Thanks for stopping by! Hugs ~ LJ

TMS #510 - Howdy!

Hello Hello! 

I am happy to share my card today for TMS Sketch Challenge #510 designed by Melissa! I pulled out another My Favorite Things Pure Innocence Image this time - "Cowgirl" and colored her with prismacolor pencils and gamsol. The embellishment in the lower right hand corner are also MFT charm dies (retired) I sponged some ink on to the die-cut boots to make them a little worn. The cowboy hat charm is from my stash.
