It's time for a new Freshly Made Sketch. Jen B is our hostess with the mostest this week and she created this fun sketch for us. When I saw it, I immediately thought of the new paper doilies in the Spring Catalog. Then I saw that Jen T. and Linda S. had already used doilies, so I had to regroup and put my thinking cap on. I remembered this card I'd made last year and decided to try something similar to that.
I added in some Rich Razzleberry with the Pumpkin Pie because I needed a non-monochromatic card. I love those two colors together! Emboss resist is one of my favorite techniques and I always forget to use it. Well, I won't say forget really. It involves turning off the ceiling fan and sometimes I don't want to get up. Lazy I know! Maybe I need a remote-controlled fan? ;)
Jason decided to let Laila play with some carrots today. I guess that's what happens when I sleep in. LOL She seemed to like holding them and trying to chew on them, so hopefully she can learn to pick up foods soon. She loves purees for now, so we'll keep feeding those and offering opportunities to learn like this.
Wow Rita this is stunning!
