Sketch For You To Try…

March 15, 2008, by {Jen}

Happy Saturday! It’s time for another SKETCH FOR YOU TO TRY!

***I’m gonna do a goodie bag this week, too. So, everyone that participates and links to this post will be entered to win a little something from me. I will pick a random winner on Friday morning! I am looking forward to seeing all of your outstanding creations!***

You can see more samples on the blogs of Amy, Carole, Shannan and Susan.

I’m short winded again today because it’s back to work on the patio for us. We are about 95% done with all of the digging. That will get done today and we hope to lay all the paver sand, too. That way will be to the point of “just” laying the brick! YAY!

Here’s the sketch…

My sample… I could not get good lighting, so it’s not the best pic. I hope to switch this pic out for a better one later. {crossing fingers!}

Here’s a sample March’s Guest Designer, Joanne Basile…

{isn’t her card just darling!!??!!}

ETA…Stamps are from PaperTreyInk

Congrats on getting so much done on the patio! I’m sure your husband must be exhausted too!

Fabulous sketch as always! I look forward to Saturday mornings, relaxing and having a cup of coffee and blogging. Yours is one of my first so I can see your sketches!

Love your card! I just recieved that paper and stamp set a couple of days ago. LOVE it! I’ll definitely have to CASE your card one day soon!

Joanne’s card is stinkin’ cute! Fabulous DP and those buttons are a wonderful touch!

I really liked this sketch and had to try it out, mixed with some other stuff. A bit of tweaking had to happen, but I just loved the inspiration you gave me! Thanks so much for sharing!

Love how you did the stitching on your card. A simple touch but I think it really makes it! The cards are great.

I’m sorry I’m only stopping by now to say hi! My internet has been down for two days! Yowers!

Can’t wait to see more patio pictures!

Hi Jen,
Good luck with the patio! We did a deck last summer…what a pain!!!
But it’s sure nice when it’s done.
Thanks for the fun sketch.
Here’s my take…

Good luck with that patio, Jen & Tony! Loved this week’s sketch, and your sample and Joanne’s sample are both fantastic. Love those Papertrey goodies on yours, as well as the stitching. Joanne’s glittered birdy is so adorable, and the buttons make it just drip with sweetness!
