Lots of Love!

Here are a few more cards I made today, got on a scrabble tile kick!!

The first one I am entering in the Cheery Lynn challenge to use a flourish! I just love their dies!

I'd like to enter this one in the Tando Love Me Do challenge:

And my final card I made today is based on the latest SOUS card sketch:

Thank you so much for looking!!

SOUS Card Sketch

I was hit with a stomach flu yesterday which left me on the sofa sleeping all day while Dave and the girls headed up to Dublin to exchange our gifts and see their cousins...we were meant to be up there New Years Eve, but they are coming home to hang with mommy, who is much much better after her 24 hours of albeit broken sleep!! I managed to finish up a layout I started a few days ago and make this card today, now that I am eating a bit more and have energy again...

Here is the sketch I used for the card.

And here is my card:

I hope you all have a wonderful New Year's Eve tonight, whatever you do! I plan to play board games with the girls and just chill and recuperate! 2012 has been a wonderful year for me of learning and growing with my cardmaking and especially with my layouts...I hope to only continue to improve in 2013!

Holiday Joy

I did this layout for the Stuck on U Sketches challenge and just spun the circles around so they are going from bottom left to right instead... I am using the C'est Magnifique kit again and lots of stash goodies. I am loving the look of the prima branches and the nest was a fun addition. This is a photo of my girls when they were little, sporting their Christmas dresses.

I am also entering this in the Bird is the Word Holiday challenge, Scrapit Girl Tick Tock I used a clock challenge and the Scrap Friends color palette challenge.

I Love Your Costumes!!

Another cool sketch from Stuck on You Sketches!

Here is my take on it! Lots of gorgeousness from my Scraps of Darkness kit and two cute girlies. Aine went as a devilish (see horns) 80s girl and Aisling and I had fun making up her costume with a felt hat and straw glued onto her clothes, she is my cutie scarecrow!
