MTSC and TCPTues125!!

My summer months were so crazy that I was unable to play in some of the challenges I normally like to...starting to get back to normal. This card is for Mercy's Tuesday Sketch challenge and The Cats Pajamas (TCP) weekly challenge!! The TCP challenge was a pic of multi-colored pencils arranged with the points in... I went for the colors. Inked up this cute bunny (Forget About the Cake) for the first time... isn't he/she adorable!!! Colored with copics, added some glitter for frosting, a sentiment, button with twine and stitched the 3 panels on the left.

TFL!!

MOJO Monday155!!

Two weeks in a row I have been able to play!! Lately, that has been a little difficult for me to find the time for. This is a great sketch-very versatile {and not too many circles..hehehe}. Used Webster's pages for the verticle panels and the gorgeous ivory lace. The scrolls on the bottom panel are a CB embossing folder {one that I "go to" a lot}. Love the green, brown, and saffron together!!

Well Read!!!

If you knew me, you would know I am an avid reader!! Read everynight in bed--- have been known to read 5 books in a week, yes.... that is absolutely true!! So, when MFT's recent VIP was WTG Well Read, how could I possibly pass that up???? She is stamped in memento tuxedo black and paper pieced with OA Report card (at the end of my stash), colored with copics, and adhered to kraft. Added ribbon, twine (from TCP and I have to say the best ever!!), corduroy buttons, ribbon and one of the new MFT die-namics, Notebook!!

For MFT's weekly stamp club challenge Back to School Blues (have been missing a few of these), this week's sketch challenge on SCS, and the C4C challenge for anything book related!! WooHoo- 3 in 1!!

Enjoy the Ride....TCPTues124!!!

The Cats Pajamas host weekly challenges on their SCS forum. This was for last week, it was a sketch challenge. Had it layed out but, never had a chance to finish. Took a long weekend for the holiday and went camping in the Smokies. Used two TCP sets- It's a Mod, Mod World (fell in love with this set-you see I grew up in the Jetson's era--shows my age LOL!!) and the sentiment is from JoyRide. Used OA report card paper and nesties to cut the circles. Added a little sewing and twine to the buttons and twill. The twine "fits the bill" for the Ways to Use it challenge- WT287 to use twine.

TFL!!


The place we go camping has a creek that you can go tubing down, you walk up about a mile and then enter the creek at a small waterfall, takes about 2 hours total- it's tricky though!! 14 went and 8 went under getting starting down the creek. My future SIL's friend and family were staying in a cabin but, came over to tube.

Verve Sept. Week One

For the Verve weekly sketch challenges, week 1 September. Made this card before I left for a long Labor Day weekend. Went camping in the mountains- got a "little" chilly with the hurricane coming through on the coast. Sunday morning I had quite the outfit- you know one of those when you throw on everything you have to keep warm!! We counted for fun- 15 different colors LOL!!
Picked the 3rd room - polka dot chair and pink pin up board. Used one of Verve's new releases from August Fabulous You and a Waltzing Mouse stamp set that works perfectly with the Spellbinders label 4 nesties (gotta love these!!).
TFL!!
