SFYTT…
Happy Saturday! We’re off to another birthday party and then, as I noted yesterday, I am going to RELAX! This weekend is supposed to be rainy and gross. Tony believes that there is a conspiracy to make it sunny all week long and then rain on the weekend when he is home. It sure seems like it this would be the case, but I have a strong inkling that Mother Nature is not working directly against him. In fact, I think she is doing him a favor…you can’t do yard work when it is raining!
Thank you to everyone that participated in the Sketch For You To Try last week {and EVERY week!}. I promised a little somethin’ somethin’ to one participant. Who could it be? None other than…

Jen, email me {link under my pic over there on the left} your info and I will get your goodies out to you next week.
Here’s my sample using some more of Melanie’s Wee Tees from Gina K….

Kimberly Crawford, this month’s Designer of the Month, made this starry sample…

Great sketch, and very timely for me. I needed a card for a man in my Small Church Community who has been going through some health problems. However, I had to add two stars to take care of too much white space. Hope you don’t mind!

Your card is SO SO cute! I love it. That little dino is ADORABLE and of course every detail is perfect! Kimberly’s card is also adorable. Well done to both of you.

Great sketch!! thanks!
Both the samples are great!

Great sketch Jen! I had fun with this one, and have a couple more ideas. Hopefully I’ll have time to try them all out
April 25, 2009, 7:31 pm
Wow! Two great sketches in a row….LOVE them
Please forgive my double post, but I couldn’t decide which card to submit. I’ve been wanting to use pompom trim for ages and just got some crocheted flowers from Etsy AND I’ve been in love with butterflies on ribbon bows
I just wish my POMPOMS weren’t so BIG! Doesn’t that sound funny? I can’t find the beautiful smaller ones in B.C.
Have a fabulous weekend

My pompoms are too BIG!! Doesn’t that sound funny? I can’t find the lovely smaller ones here in B.C.
Have a fabulous weekend

Two great-looking samples, Jen! Love what you’re doing with that darling onesie! The buttons are perfect! Kim’s sample is fabulous, too. Love the big star as the focal point and the fun ric rac!
April 26, 2009, 4:08 pm
Love both of your samples!! Such a fun sketch - although I did adjust the dimensions of everything to make it work with my image. But your sketch was definitely was I was going from!!! Thanks as always!
April 26, 2009, 5:40 pm
Jen…sorry for the double post. I haven’t posted in a while and didn’t realize it linked to an old challenge I did for you!
GREAT sketch…When I wanted to play with this technique, you sketch came to mind right away!
April 26, 2009, 5:44 pm
Great cards, Jen! Fun sketch. Thanks!!
April 26, 2009, 7:47 pm
I just love your cards…I kind of play a game when I look through magazines and try to guess the designers before looking…I always guess your’s correctly, they are always my fave ones!!!
Too funny, I say the exact same thing as Tony…the conspiracy about weekend weather!!!!

Fabulous cards! Love the baby card…so crisp and clean, and Kimberly’s circle star is so perfect!
