This week's challenge over at the
Sugarbowl is a sketch challenge.
I had such a hard time with this challenge.
At first I thought what a great way to use Baubles, but as I choose the DP it just went down hill.
I think my coloring came out great, but this sketch was difficult.
Instead of a star, I scanned the Basic Grey DP Mistle Toe and Pears and blew up the snowflake.
I originally thought that would look cool since i used the original DP behind it on one of the layers.
But the layers cover up the base DP which is also by BG and has ornaments all over it.
UGGGGGGH.
I added some pearl embellishments and I think that helped,but this is not one of my favorite cards!
And since pearls are the challenge over at
Basic Grey Challenges I can use it there too!
My boss' husband fell dow the stairs and broke his neck recently. Luckily the damage is not as bad as it could be. He will be laid up for months with a neck brace and depending on how he heels, may need surgery. For now, he is laid up in a reclining bed. I thought this Bugaboo Nurse Margret card would cheer him up a little. I hope his visiting nurse doesn't like her.
Jodi is giving away Two, yes TWO magnolia summer kits. All you need to do is visit her blog, Inked Inspirations, leave a comment, become a follower and post on your own blog. 
I just received this image in a swap and thought it was a great summer image. This is Lilly at the Beach from Pink Cat Studios. I aded a little glitter on her he mermaid tail. I also just got a new Martha Stuart punch and thought it matched the scales or Lilly's tail.
The challenge over at the Sugar Bowl is to choose your own sketch and choose your own prize!
