Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge #66

Today's sketch is another pretty easy one, especially if you own the circle scissors plus or Nestabilities. There are so many things that will fit in the circle you can let your imagination go wild--I did as you will see. Of course I combined challenge again for today but I will tell you about that after you see the sketch. So here it is.........


My first card is combined with the Color Throwdown Challenge #38. I have three more cards with this combo that I will post in the morning for the Latenight Stamper's weekly challenge. The colors this week were just beautiful!

I used the Friends 24-7 stamp set and of course it is 100% current stampin up and qualifys for my You're Hired again series. Actually all three of my cards today are part of this series, they all are 100% current Stampin Up and they will all be going to Sherrill Graff.




Stamps: Friends 24-7 and Really Retro
Paper: Ruby Red, Baja Breeze Whisper White and Urban Oasis DP
Ink: Ruby Red, Baja Breeze, Going Grey
Other: Ruby Red brads, circle scissors plus,white ribbon that has been dyed with ruby red ink. word window punch, sponges, markers, gel pen


The next two cards are for the Design Team monthly theme challenge. Our challenge for April is to make projects that are for Mother's Day, Graduation, or Spring. Well I have made a few for Spring and a few for Mother's Day but I did not have any current graduation sets so I had to get creative. Keep in mind I don't have anyone graduating from college or highschool--just the elementary school so these cards are both kid friendly.

hen I say this idea on Leigh O'Briens blog. I knew I had to try it and I just happen to have a bunch of these little games laying around-image that! What don't I have laying around, lol. My son loves skulls so I knew I had to use this set. The graduation hat is hand drawn.



Stamps: Just Jawin and Hugs and Wishes
Paper: Basic Black, Basic Grey texture and regular, Whisper White
Ink: Basic Black
Other: mini ball game, embroidery thread

The next is also a graduation card and the hat is again hand drawn. This really is a cute set for graduation cards, don't you think?



Stamps: Animal Crackers, Really Retro
Paper: Bella Birds DP, So Saffron DP, So Saffron, Bordering Blue, Whisper White, Chocolate Chip, Pink Pirouette
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Basic Black
Other: Chocolate Chip ribbon, markers, word window punch, small, large and scallop oval punches, So Saffron brads.

The colors on this last one are from the SCS it is CC214
