Happy Tuesday. I am so tired today, I stayed up way too late reading last night. I started a new book called Your All That by Paula White. Plus my new devotional book that my dear friend Shelly gave be by Beth Moore called Praying God's Word. Now I am praying that God gives me the energy to get through my day, lol!
Anyway I have a couple of cards to share that I made last night. The first one is for the 411 sketch challenge. Here is the sketch for this week.
And here is my card. This was the fourth card I made yesterday and it was taking a bit longer than I like to spend on one card, lol. But now that it is done I am really happy with it. I used the pencil over marker technique on the flowers.
I am so loving this Sweet Pea Paper pack, fun colors.
Stamps: Vintage Labels (sab), Bloomin' Beautiful
Paper: Old Olive, So Saffron, Chocolate Chip, Whisper White, Sweet Pea Paper Pack
Ink: Basic Black, Chocolate Chip, Rose Red
Other: embossing folder, ribbon, circle punches, markers, colored pencils, gel pen
And now for the WHAT WAS I THINKING part of the post. Can you image that I did not like or want the hostess set Love Bug. But since I already have all the other level one sets I thought what the heck, maybe I can come up with something cute using it. Well I really loved the Valentine I made yesterday with the little lady bug but I LOVE this card. How stinkin cute is this. I can't believe I almost didn't get this adorable set!!!
Isn't that little baby bug just too cute! I love the bright colors on this card too. I bet you want the set now too!

Well that is enough for today. I can't believe I have about 10 cards that I have not shared with you guys yet. Been busy creating lately.
I hope you have a fabulous Tuesday!

MJ, this card is stunning! I love that stamp set so much and you've just done a beautiful job with it. The circle paper gives it such a fresh feel!
Thanks for playing along this week!
Simply Stunning! I love the new paper with that flower pot stamp! Gorgeous!!
oooo I know how you feel - I work in libraries and am so fortunate to have lots of books to read....but last night I just had to finish a book I was reading...well, that was after doing 2 cards and blogging (and reading blogs!)..then hubby came to bed and woke me up coughing (he said he was trying to do it quietly!!) - then woke me up again a little later by snoring...grrrr!
I am just amazed you are not cross-eyed this morning!
I like your cards especially the blooming with beauty one using the 411 sketch.
Wow these are two stunning cards love them both
