Sketch For You To Try…

Posted by Jen | MFT, cards, challenges, designer of the month | Saturday, March 29, 2008

Saturday, already? WOW! This week flew by. Yesterday Grandmama, Ellie and I went to the Fort Worth Botanic Gardens to see the Butterfly Exhibit. It was so cool! Ellie had a great time and I got a lot of great pictures, which I will share with you next week. I feel like I have bombarded you with Ellie pics this week. I wouldn’t want you to overdose on the cuteness. ;)
Of course I have a sketch for you to try! I have my sample card done, but do not have ample lighting, so I will be uploading it later. In the meantime, check out the blogs of Amy, Carole, Shannan and Susan for some great samples. Of course, I have my Guest Designer, Joanne Basile’s, sample just below the sketch.
Have fun with this one! When uploading to SCS, please use the keyword SFYTT. Be sure to post a link here, too! BTW-last week was probably one of my favorite sketches so far. I am absolutely in awe with what everyone is coming up with!! You all are a true inspiration!! Hugs-Jd

    That trip sounds fun Jen! I love seeing butterfly exhibits. Chloe gets a little freaked out with them all flying around in a room and landing on her though…lol

    Joanne’s sample is so cute!! I will get busy on this sketch after I’ve had more coffee ;)

    Have a wonderful weekend!

    Nothing wrong with cuteness and esp. w/a lil girl with a name like hers (SMMMMILE) I went a lil over board this week w/pics on my blog since it was my DS2 5th birthday and I will be adding MORE pics this week as today is his party!! :)
    I love this sketch I am gonna try to play along I’ll see if I can make a little something tomorrow afternoon after a class I’m doing :)

    Happy Weekend!

    Awesome samples! Love them both … especially the colors. It’s the end of the month — does that mean we have to say goodbye to Joanne? I’ve loved everything she contributed. Thanks for the inspiration, Joanne!

    I know this is kind of an old post… and I know that everyone did it in the first week, and I did too… but I haven’t posted it until today… Thought I would still post it since I went through the actually making one.
