TMS #546 - Happy Easter



Hello Hello!

Welcome to Tuesday Morning Sketch Challenge #546. Debbie has a fun sketch this week that is really flexible with the design!

For my card this week I used the new Tim Holtz set "Spring Shadows". The patterned paper is from My Favorite Things. I don't think the big checked patterned paper is available anymore though.

Here is this week's sketch if you would like to try it out..

Duel - National Day of Happiness - Java Style


Hello Hello, 

It's time for our monthly duel between the divas and darlings! Tami has sent us a super cute coffee-themed kit using images from Avery Elle and Sentiments from A*Muse. 

I decided to take a different approach to this month's duel. I'm in an Artist Trading Card (ATC) swap that is due soon (actually tomorrow) and one of the themes is coffee. Since I don't have a lot of coffee stamps (I'm not a coffee drinker) I thought I would use this month's kit for my ATCs! The great thing is I probably used more of the kit, than I would had I just made a card. 

Here are the other two ATCs I made (in addition to the one above)

TMS #544 - Long & Tall


Hello Hello!

It's Tuesday so it's time for another Tuesday Morning Sketch Challenge! Andrea has a long and tall sketch for us this week! I love sketches that do not use the traditional A2 sized card so I hope to see more of these from Andrea! she did a great job designing this sketch!  This card will fit perfectly into an #10 business envelope!

Any way - my image and sentiment is from a retired Taylored Expressions Set, "Madelyn". I colored her with my Stampin Up Blend Markers. The patterned paper and ribbon is from Stampin Up.

Here is this week's sketch if you would like to try it out!

TMS #542 - You Are Wonderful



Hello Hello -

It's our last "favorite" of 2019 for Tuesday Morning Sketches. It's been fun visiting and playing with some favorites from last year. Beginning next week we will have new sketches to play with! Yay!

This week's favorite comes from Patti - and she picked a sketch with banners - you know I love banners! decided to pull out a recent pack of beautiful Spring Market Papers from Echo Park (which I found at Tuesday Morning for $5.99! That is also where the flower pot sticker came from.  I think it's from last year. The sentiment is from Rooted In Nature by Stampin Up!. and then I add a few enamel dots from |Paper Studio.

I am ready to move on from snowy winter cards - after getting 5" of wet, heavy snow I am ready for Spring!

Here is this week's sketch if you would like to play along!
