{SSSC168} & {CR84FN63}



Happy Sweet Sunday, everyone!!!  It's officially FALL - my favorite time of the year.  The smells, the colors and the cooler temperatures all make me feel warm and fuzzy.  This weekend I'm enjoying the wonderful Rocky Mountains in Banff with my PIC, Lori, and her sister, Jackie.  Jackie and I both did a 10K run yesterday while Lori was our own personal cheering squad.  The mountains in the fall have got to be one of the most amazing sights ever... I will try to post some pics when I get back.

Enough babbling about me - who's ready for another amazing Sweet Sunday Sketch from Karen?   As always, you can layer it all up or, if you're in a rush, CAS is easy-peasy too:



My color combo comes courtesy of the CR84FN Color Challenge -  I love these colors.  Right now they have a DT Call going on so I'm throwing my name into the ring for that too...you all know how much I love my color challenges so I think this would be a perfect match.  :)  I decided to use Early Espresso, Soft Suede and an old SU! color, Blue Bayou, for this combo:



All of the fabulous Sweet Sunday Stampers have inspiration for you, so please stop by and say hello to:


... and this week's amazing Guest Sweet Stamper, Broni Holcombe!

I hope you will be able to find some time to play along with us this week - the next sketch will be in OCTOBER!!!  ACK!!!  Have a great week, everyone!
