Food and Fun and another sketch player too.

This was a simple fun project. I did not want to add to many details because I really want it to be usable. This six pack holders came from Our Daily Bread Designs. I don't know about you but I will order just about anything extra to get me to free shipping, lol. I had no idea what I was going to do with these. Then as I was reading a magazine I about eating outside I thought of this. It is perfect. It holds Ketchup, Mustard, salt and peper, napkins and silver/plastic ware! I love it and it really was a pretty easy project.

Stamps: none
Papers: Cutie Pie
Ink: Bashful Blue to dye flowers.
Other: misc chipboard letters, stickers from Crew Kids Boy simply scrappin kit, flowers from the pretties kit and a white brad.

Not only cute but useful too! Yippee.

Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge 24

This weeks challenge is being posted at my New Summer Hours post time. My son needs to talk a summer reading class and I will not be able to post at noon for the next couple months, so I am thinking that I will actually post at night so that my readers that use a feedblitz will actually get it on Monday and not Tuesday! Then I will come back around lunch time-- little earlier or later depending on the day-- and post all the players. How is that?

I really like today's sketch. I actually make these sketches from all sorts of different things, cereal boxes, posters, labels -- and after I make them I don't look at them or think about them until the day I need to post, lol. See this way it is even a challenge for me. Honestly sometimes I open the sketch and say to myself "what the heck am I gonna do with that!" --pretty weird since I make them. Anyway as I said I did like this one and will probably use it again real soon. I had lots of ideas but went with the first one for this card. So here is the sketch.....

And now for my card. I really don't use my pretties kit enough because it is usually buried somewhere in my studio. So I have put it in the open and have been trying to use it. Hence the focal point of my card. The striped section behind the flowers is actually a clear acrylic picture frame with stripes. I thought it would be fun to use a background stamp for a change and stamp it twice so it is repeated behind the acrylic frame too. I really like it--fast and easy

Stamps: Paisley Background
Paper: Brocade Blue and Only Orange
Ink: Brilliant Blue
Other: Pretties Kit, Only Orange marker, Brocade Blue brad, rub ons, acrylic frame, white gel pen, dimensionals

So don't forget to come on back around lunchtime to see the other players. They always do a fabulous job so you won't want to miss their creations. See ya then.

By the way if you would like to play along it would make my day. After you post your card leave a comment here with a link so that I can share it with all of my readers. If you post on SCS please use TSSC24.

Wagging my tail for another Sketch player!

This card is for the FS73 challenge on SCS. The stamper today was "chelemom" and this is the card I chose to case. I loved the layout and the idea of the button on the tag so those are the things I kept. I changed the papers, stamps and colors.

I pulled out more of those dollar stamps from JoAnn's these are Inkadinkado stamps in different wrappers! The bargain of the year! You may need to enlarge the image to read the saying.

You make me so happy ....... I could wag my tail. Too cute don't you think.

Stamps: Inkadinkado
Papers: Old Olive, River Rock, Whisper White, Bordering Blue and dp from the Home Again kit
Ink: Timber Brown Stazon and Chocolate Chip, River Rock and Old Olive classic ink
Other: Nestabilities, misc button, tag punch, paper piercer and mat pack


And now for another player in the Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge. Starting tomorrow I will be posting earlier due to my son's summer school. I will be gone during normal posting time. I may post very early in the morning and then come back on around lunch time to post the other player's card. Anyway, for now why not check out this fabulous card by .......

Lori at Inking Aloud

Thanks for playing Lori.
