Brothers

Good Morning! YAY for this week being almost over. I am super excited.

Well there was a miscommunication for this week's Sketch Inspiration challenge. I do not believe to be sponsoring this week, I think it will be in two weeks. I will post the info here when I know for sure. The sketch this week is awesome so you should still play along, there is a great prize to be won.

Our Delightful Designer, Debbie, created this beauty.

DEBBIE

I love all the detail!! Just beautiful! Debbie did use the Sketch Inspiration sketch to create this LO - this is her interpretation of the sketch. For more details and inspiration please visit Debbie's blog.

And here is the sketch in case you want to play along this week. :-)

Well that's all for today. Hope you all have a wonderful day!! I will be finishing up some homework and then working on a Mother's Day card that someone asked me to make for them. She said her mother loves gnomes and she loved my "Thankful for my Gnomies" card I made using our September monthly kit. So I am going to make a more Mother's Day-ish card. :-) I will share it with all of you when I am done. :-)

Happy Monday my friends!! I am in total count down mode. I have 3 weeks until I am done with my Spring semester. I am all registered for Summer classes and I think I have Tony convinced we need to move in August. LOL! I am trying to get it all planned so we can move in August. He is worried we won't be financially ready, I am making it so WE ARE ready financially. This will happen. LOL!!

Anywho, this week we are sponsoring over at Sketch Inspiration. If you play along you will have a chance to win our SOLD OUT April scrapbook kit. My DT was able to play along with the sketch too.
Here is the sketch:

*I was having trouble with blogger this morning, sorry for posting this a bit later than normal*

Good Morning and Happy Monday! Back to school for me. I am both excited and sad. I am excited to get the "party started" (lol) but I am sad because I have to get back to school and homework and maybe not any craft time. :-( But as soon as this semester is over it is all uphill from there. I will only have 2 classes to take and I should be able to find a job.....a REAL job.

Anywho, did you see yesterday's post? With the giveaway? The one where I talked about sponsoring Sketch Inspiration? The one that I shared not one but TWO LO's that I was able to create? Well if not, click here.

Today I have a LO to share with you that our Delightful Designer, Julie created using the sketch for Sketch Inspiration this week. Julie used our January scrapbook kit. :-)

JULIE

I love the heart she made using the jute that is included in this month's kit. :-) And here is the sketch:
If you aren't already a member of Sketch Inspiration you should join so you can play along with their sketches each week. Especially this week of course. :-) And I will be sponsoring again......just sayin'!

Ok, so you have until Saturday, January 14th to enter the giveaway! :-) Just leave me a comment on THIS post for your chance to win.

Be sure to stop by Julie's blog for details about this LO and a ton of inspiration. :-)

Fun, fun, and more fun!!! (giveaway and sponsorship)

Good Morning my friends! I am super excited today because I get to share a couple of LO's and they were created by ME!! :-) Oh yeah I crafted and it felt Grrrrr-eat!!

This week Artful Delight is sponsoring over at Sketch Inspiration and I am super excited!! The prize is a January scrapbook kit. :-) The Delightful Designers and I got to play along with the sketch too and we are all sharing our projects with you today.

If you aren't already a member of Sketch Inspiration sign up and play along with this week's sketch.

It's sort of a mini blog hop. Nothing formal just hop to all the designers blog's and see all the amazing inspiration. And the best part is I have a little giveaway too. It is a box of goodies, pattern papers, embellishments, etc. Most of it is brand spankin' new. There is a small amount of embellishment packages that maybe one or two items were used but that's it. I did a major cleaning yesterday of my craft space and I have a bunch of stuff to giveaway. Today's giveaway is just one of a few you will see over the couple weeks.

Now on to the fun stuff. The first is the LO I created using the sketch from Sketch Inspiration.

Here is the sketch this week:

And my take on the sketch:

A couple weeks ago we took the kids to Monkey Joe's. It is an indoor play area filled with bounce houses. My kids had a blast. This LO features my 4 year old playing and having a good time. This whole LO is created using the January scrapbook kit.

The next LO I would like to share with you I created using the sketch at Sketchy Thursdays. Here is that sketch:

And here is my take on the sketch:







This LO is also created using the January scrapbook kit. :-)

Alright, well go sign up for Sketch Inspiration and play along this week. Oh and I will be sponsoring again sometime soon....just sayin'! :-)

Also don't forget to leave a comment to be entered in to my little giveaway.

Now go hop over to see what the rest of the team created and then hop over to Sketch Inspiration and play along. :-)
