Three Challenges, Two Cards, One Sketch...
Are you as glad as I am that it's Friday???? OY. What a week and I am POOPED! I have had VERY little time to do anything let alone sit and craft so when I got home this afternoon I MADE time. :)
I always have so many challenges that I *want* to do but I guess I have to accept the fact that I'm not always going to be able to do them all. I thought maybe if I did two cards at once I could "kill two birds with one stone" as the old adage goes...
I've been looking at Samantha's combo for this week for a couple of days - they are great colors and I don't use Really Rust very often but I like how well they go together:
The Color Throwdown has a very soothing, calming combination for us - Garden Green is slowly becoming one of my favorite colors:
I decided that I wanted to use one of my new Verve Plain Jane's so I went in search of a sketch that would fit it and found today's Friday Sketchers' sketch:
Well, it *kind* of works... I had to rotate it 90* clockwise to make it work...
I'm heading off to get some supper going and then I'm going over to Lori's to help her finalize some Stamp-a-Stack details - hopefully we'll be able to get all prepped before I leave for Europe...only 17 more sleeps...ACK! I am *so* NOT ready!
See you later- enjoy your weekend!
