2 Sketches 4 U

A new card sketch blog.
This is only their 2nd week, but I love the sketches thus far.
This card is based off of Kazan's Week #2 sketch. The girls are with grandparents, so I'm getting a little more scrapping time:) I used my Fiskar border punch around the edges & K&Co products. The "i love you" is part of a K&Co fabric tag. The cute bird is a Studio Calico stamp exclusive....isn't it cute!!

I'll post my layouts later. I wanted to get this card uploaded for now.

CPS 66, 67 & 68

Finally getting time to scrap & trying to find my mojo. Here are some cards I did using some CPS sketchs. This first one is using the CPS #66 sketch. I'm pretty sure it was supposed to be a summer theme, but I was good just to get it finished. A circle design...........something you don't see too often in my work.

This 2nd card is from CPS #67. I used these canvas tags I took off some jeans. I've had them for awhile & thought they were perfect for this card. I save a lot of my clothing tags. These days, they're very pretty.

This last card is one I'll give to hubby for Father's Day. I used CPS #68. The center of this design is actually one I've used on an older card & loved it enough to use again. I'll have the girls make their own cards for daddy. They love to do that.

I did get some scrapping time tonight, so tomorrow I'll be uploading some layouts I got finished. All-in-all, a fairly productive day.

Would you like some cheese.......................

with that WHINE?




Why!
Yes!
Yes I would!
I really do prefer pepperjack, but at this point, any kind will do.

And, if I might also add, could you please clean my house, find my mojo, get some extra sleep for me and fix dinner?

Once upon a time....................

there was a girl who blogged & scrapped.
She blogged & scrapped & scrapped & blogged.
Such was the life of this girl.

Then school was released.
The End!!

That just about sums it up for me:)
I'm enjoying having both of my girls home with me.
I always forget just how much I miss having Ashlyn around until summer hits.
Then I'm selfish about letting her go do things with other people:)

So, we finally bought her a dress for the dance team banquet Friday night & got her a Wii.
I'm not sure who's having more fun with the Wii?
Her or us:)
Even Camryn is having a blast & it really is interactive & tons of fun.
I highly recommend it for the "exercise" benefits & the family time.
I'm going to start playing left-handed so my left arm can get a workout!

I haven't felt the least bit creative either, though I do have a card in the works on my desk.
So, instead of scrapping (or blogging for that matter), I replaced the DVD/CD drive in my computer, which led to cleaning out the cabinets in my scraproom, which finally led to restraightening my albums (a story I won't bore you with).
And here I sit at 12:30 AM pooped from it all.

All this newfound freedom has given me plenty of time to think & here's a few things I've been thinking about:

1) I laugh really hard at the lengths people go to just to get people to visit their blog. *snort*
2) After today, I no longer wonder about Camryn's OCD issues. I have my own to worry about.
3) I found $2.00 in the mall yesterday & that's like winning the lottery for me.
4) It's okay to have milkshakes or Starbucks everyday during the summer. The heat helps burn off the calories.
5) Always go with your gut. One, because it's part of you & you have no choice, but two, because it's usually right.
6) If you have a 3 1/2 year-old, you really need a Wii. There's nothing cuter than watching them bowl & box!!!

And, in case you forgot about the sale at Just Let Me Scrapbook, here's the info again.
