Sketch For You To Try…

April 18, 2009, by {Jen}

Happy Saturday! It’s actually Friday night as I write this, so I assume that it is a happy Saturday. Hopefully the weather will hold up today {tomorrow} so we can make it to an outdoor birthday party. They are going to have a bounce house and that is a 50/50 shot at either “so much fun I can’t stop giggling” or “you think that I am going in there will all them?” Wish me luck!

**LOCALS**
Don’t forget that today is the GINORMOUS Garage Sale at Imprints in Fort Worth! I was down there the other day and there is going to be SO MUCH good stuff for sale! I hope to make it down there later. See ya there!?

Let’s make this sketch a wee bit more fun this week by adding in a little blog tart. I’ll draw a random participant next Saturday to win a little grab bag filled with goodies. Think ribbons, papers, flowers and bunches of other embellies! Just be sure to post a link on Mr. Linky below. If you have trouble with Mr. Linky, just email me and I will add you. {Note: Mr. Linky can take a few minutes to update}.

Ok, so here’s the sketch…

Here’s my sample, using Flamenco Ketto from Stamping Bella. It’s also part of the Bellarific Friday challenge from last week. You can see all the Bella Babes’ and participants cards HERE.

    Both samples are TDF! I love your fun & bright Ketto, and Kimberly’s pink & green combo is sooo up my alley! Keeping my fingers crossed that the weather holds out for you and that Miss Ellie enjoys the Bounce House!

    Jen, that image couldn’t BE more adorable and I {heart} the flourish and pom poms!

    Kimberly, what an awesome flower and the sentiment is just perfect for that oval! Love the polka dots too! Hey, did you see that we were page/layout sisters in April Cards?! How exciting for me to be aligned with YOU!

    Hi! I have 2 firsts today! The first time to share my work where everyone can see in SCS…that’s a little scary! The second is to participate in a challenge…well….I participate all of the time, ya’ll just didn’t know it! HA! HA! This one was so fun, I just decided to take the plunge and let more people see the craft of my heart than just my DH and DD.

    Love this sketch! I can see myself using it again. By the way, I went to the garage sale at Imprints on Saturday. Got lots of great deals, many stamps gently or not used at all. I live in Fort Worth, and just discovered Imprints several months ago through your blog. I was so disappointed my first time in there to find out that they were closing! Bummer! We really need an LSS in Fort Worth!

    I love the sketch and your blog! Thanks for sharing all the wonderful ideas. I do not know how you do it day after day so much creativity and eye candy (plus a little blog candy too) - it takes me forever to finish one card!!!
