Happy Wednesday! And Happy July! We've made it to the middle of the week and the middle of the year. Woo Hoo! I'm happy to say that as yesterday was a super crappy day for me and my girl. We survived, but man! Those threes might just be worse than the twos and we just got started! Anyway... I'm the hostess/designer/thingamajigger at
Freshly Made Sketches this week and I hope you like the sketch I came up with. I did a wee bit (okay, a lot) of stretching of the sketch for my card. My card kit from Simon Says Stamp came and I just had to use it! It is such a fun one and I love how my card turned out! I can't wait to ink it up again soon!
You can see all the elements of the sketch in my card, right? Yeah! lol I love what the rest of the team did, so be sure you hop over and see their amazing creations as well.
I'm pretty sure that blowing out the candles is Laila's favorite part of her birthday parties. :) She was quite happy that she got the strawberry cake she asked for. Jason and I aren't the best cake makers, but we worked together to make her a homemade one.
Gorgeous! Love how you did the water. My kit came yesterday, so thank for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteWOW.. I love everything about your card! And that strawberry cake looks yummy!

ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, Ms. Thingamajigger! This card is out-of-this-world fabulous! Yes, I definitely see the sketch, but how you created the elements, ie. the banners, the sea, etc. is just an awesome example of your extreme talent and eye for design. I want this card! :)
