I’m excited! I get to host the challenge over at Freshly Made Sketches this week. Here’s the sketch:
I just got the Festive Flurry bundle yesterday (resistance was futile), so I decided to break it out and use the snowflake die for the circle shape in the sketch.
I hope you’ll join us for this challenge. You can check out what the other designers made at the Freshly Made Sketches site here.
In other news, my Mother-in-Law is getting out of the hospital tomorrow. She is slowly recovering from her broken hip. My brother-in-law from New York is staying with her this next week, so she’ll have someone with her. I tell you, a broken hip looks like a very painful injury — wouldn’t wish it on anyone! We bought a new (used) car yesterday to replace the one my husband totaled in his accident on the way to the hospital for my MIL’s surgery last week. It’s nice to have that off my plate — shopping for a car takes a lot of time. I’m ready to have some regular time for stamping again!
Enjoy your Wednesday! Thanks for stopping by!
Supplies Used:
Paper: Pool Party, Bermuda Bay, Winter Frost Specialty dsp, Silver Foil Sheets, Silver Glimmer Paper
Embellishments: Festive Flurry framelits, Expressions Thinlits dies, Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border punch, Silver 1/8″ Ribbon
