TMS #548 - What She Said

Hello Hello!

It's time for another Tuesday Morning Sketch Challenge. I have to admit, I am a little more excited than usual this week for our Sketch, as it's; one I designed! I was creating a card for a friend to mail to her and It just ended up being a sketch with a couple of banners and lots of random circles. It's a great sketch for scraps! and also buttons, which I didn't even use on my card.

Anyway, I used Big Grumpy from Taylored Expressions. Such a cute guy, even though he looks pretty grumpy!

And here's the sketch if you would like to play along:

TMS #547 - My Friend



Hello Hello

Welcome to Tuesday Morning Sketches #547. Our sketch this week comes from Melissa!

I used a new (to me) Taylored Expressions set called Rosy Posy. The floral image is two steps, stamping the line image first and then stamping the solid image over it. I used my Misti tool to line them up. I then fussy cut the flowers out. The patterned paper is from Paper Trey Ink. I added some SU bling to finish the card. The sentiment makes me think of the TV Series Golden Girls. When I see that sentiment I want to start singing the theme song from the show. Ha ha.

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

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.

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! 


Thanks for stopping by Today! Hugs- LJ

My card this week; features stamps and sentiment from Gina K Designs! I colored the flower image with my Stampin Blends. I normally don't use pastels but I like how this one turned out. The sentiment is popped up on dimensionals.
