DECONSTRUCTED SKETCH Challenge

Hello and happy Thursday everyone. Are you ready for another awesome sketch for Jen's Deconstructed Sketch challenge. She has another beauty for us this week.


For my card today I am using an adorable new image called LULA BIG HEART from ALL THAT SCRAPS. I paired her with a new matching die called BIG HEARTS and a new AmyR sentiment set called HEART-Y SAYINGS.NOTE: The big heart she is holding is blank on the stamped image. I stamped my sentiment in the heart to make a love card. You can put whatever you would like in that heart :) I flipped the sketch sideways for my card. Here it is.

If you’d like to join us this week for Jen's sketch all you need to do is create a project using the above sketch as inspiration. There are no specific image requirements for this challenge. Upload your project to your blog or to an online gallery and link it back Jen's blog to Inlinkz. There is no time limit to play this week.
Be sure to hop around and check out what the rest of the Deconstructed Sketch Design Team has made!

ALL THAT SCRAPS "Back from the Past"

Hello friends and happy Tuesday. Well, it has finally turned cold here in the south. It's only getting up to 40 here today and they are talking about SNOW tomorrow ...... wait, what? It never snows here in the South before Christmas and even after Christmas it's few and far between. Except for last year, that is. We had a beautiful white Christmas here last year and it had been around 35 years since we had a white Christmas. Is it too much to ask for 2 in a row? Would love to see it again.

Alrighty, are you ready for our BACK FROM THE PAST themed post today from ALL THAT SCRAPS? All of the DT are using winter images that are at least a year old. Yay!!!! Love dragging out my older stamps that haven't seen love in a while. I used C.C. Designs Sugarplum Teddy Emma for my main image. I used AmyR's Snowman Sentiment set for the sentiment on the outside of the card and AmyR's Handy Christmas Greetings Sentiment set for the inside of the card. I also used the Mistletoe die. Here is my card with a funky Christmas color theme.

Thanks for stopping by today. Make sure you head over to the ATS blog to check out what the rest of the DT has done today. Have a great day friends.

Hugs,

ALL THAT SCRAPS - November Review Preview #2

Hello friends and happy Tuesday. I'm a little late getting this post up, SORRY!!! Fell back asleep this morning after I got my hubby off to work and my son off to school and woke up at 12:00 (yes .... noon). GASP!!! Let me tell you though, I FEEL GOOD. LOL.


I have a card for you today using one of the newly released images this month from ALL THAT SCRAPS. I used WISH U. GOODCHEER, Sweet November image (love them!!!) and the sentiment is from the AmyR sentiment set SNOWMAN SAYINGS. The paper is from the BO BUNNY BLITZEN 6X6 PAPER PAD. Here is my card.

 Isn't he wonderful? Snowmen are some of my fav images. 


Thanks for stopping by today. I hope each and every one of you have a glorious Thanksgiving holiday. Love you all.

ALL THAT SCRAPS - Review Preview of November Stamps

Hello friends and happy Tuesday. Beautiful, beautiful weather here in the South this week. Been out enjoying it before the cold weather hits. I just adore Fall, one of my fav times of the year. It has finally cooled down from the stifling heat of a GA summer.

It's time today to show you another peak at some of the images that are new this month at ALL THAT SCRAPS. For my card today I used the adorable HELLO BIRGITTA. This cutie pie could be used for any occasion. The sentiment is from the AMY R SNOWMAN SENTIMENTS. The paper is from SU. (BTW, I have found some new friends in town to do SU together once a month and I am now joining them. It's so nice to make new friends.) Here is my card.

Thanks so much for stopping by my little 'ole blog today. Be sure to head over to the ATS Blog to check out what else is being shown today using the new November stamps. Have a great day my sweet friends.
