{SSSC179} & {PDCC171}



Howdy, howdy crafty friends! How are you all doing this snowy Sunday? Well, it probably isn't snowy everywhere but it sure is here in Central Alberta.  One day it will melt and stay gone - these spring storms are sometimes worse than the winter ones.  I know, I know...*technically* it is still winter, not spring yet, but it has sure felt like spring the last week or so.  Here in Alberta we can get snow in May or June so nothing should really surprise me anymore.  :)

So it's time for another fantastic sketch from Karen over at the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge.  This week's sketch was designed by our own Vicki Burdick - how much do you love those little flags??


Did you know that if you follow us on Facebook, you can sometimes get the sketch early?  YEP - when (and *if*) we remember, it is posted on Saturday to give you one more day to play along with us.  How's that for awesomenosity? 

For my card, I pulled out some old Verve - a beautiful swirly frame and a {heart U} die - and combined them with this week's color combo over at the Play Date Cafe:



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

Enjoy the rest of your Sunday - wherever you are!  See you tomorrow!
