2 Sketches 4 You!!!

Literally, two sketches for you! I was able to create a sketch this week for 2 Sketches 4 You!!! So fun!! It is only my second one! I don't know how Laura and Kazan do it week after week. They are so amazing! Our fun sponsor this week is Creative Cuts and More. I just LOVE their products. I was privileged to work with them for World Card Making Day as well. Such fun stuff!! The first card and sketch are from Laura's sketch...isn't it cool?! Get your thinking caps on! The second card is from the sketch I created. I hope you all play along. I can't wait to see what you all create! Each and every week you inspire me! Hugs, Cheryl

I Put In My Thumb and Pulled Out A....Plum

I'm so loving the inspiration over at Moxie Fab World. This time I put in my thumb and pulled out the Plum Crazy challenge. Holy Moly you are not going to believe all the stunning creations everyone has come up with using gorgeous tones of plum. I'm not even done looking at all of them and my jaw is dropping to the floor. I can't wait to drool slack jawed over the rest of them. I so loved coming up with this little holiday card of my own. I think I will be using plum a little more often on holiday and all other cards...it provides a touch of elegance I think.

**Moxie Fab World** Tuesday Trigger

I am so happy I had the time to play along with this week's Tuesday Trigger at Moxie Fab World. What a great place for inspiration to help finish my holiday cards. I truly loved the inspiration piece provided by Laura O'Donnell.(and her amazing card, I must say) Everything that made this place setting so lovely can be used to make a wonderful card...the sparkle of the glassware, the texture of the linen, the layering of the dishware and that fabulous unexpected color combination...LOVE it! Thanks Laura and Moxie Fab World for this great bit of inspiration. Maybe it will spark some ideas in all of your minds as well. Go check it out!

2 Sketches 4 You*DRS Designs**Kazan #39**

Hi all!! It is time for another fabulous sketch from 2 Sketches 4 You! The sponsor this week is DRS Designs. They are offering a $15 gift certificate to the card of the week! You are so going to love their product. You need to check out all the different work by the design team this week and see all the variety of products offered. I was thrilled to use this gorgeous snowflake. I kept my card really simple this week (which is unusual for me) because I just wanted to focus in on that beautifully detailed snowflake. I used the DRS Designs snowflake stamp with white ink and then some white embossing powder. Go check out Kazan's fabulous sketch, the DT's awesome inspiration and DRS Designs fabulous product!

Are You Ready For the Holidays?! *Laura Sketch 38*

So are you all ready for the Holidays? Can you believe it is NOVEMBER?!! I'm usually quite the procrastinator when it comes to getting ready, but I've been trying really hard to change all that. I made a ton of Holiday cards and even have them all addressed and ready to go.......but......I discovered I still have a few left to make. I thought Laura's sketch at 2 Sketches 4 You was the perfect inspiration for a holiday card. Our fabulous sponsors this week are Sukura of America and Starving Artistamps!! If you need to get some cards ready for this holiday season I bet you'll be inspired by Laura's sketch, too. We have some really fabulous new design team members that have been announced today so go check it out!

Moxie Fab World Tuesday Trigger

I've been lurking at Moxie Fab World for quite awhile now and decided to just go ahead and jump in and participate in one of their challenges. I really loved the Tuesday Trigger that Courtney Baker provided. I thought the green and gray colors of the pillow would make a cool twist for a Christmas card. I have a few more Christmas cards I need to make sooooooooooo....I came up with this. Instead of owls, like on the pillow I went with reindeer. Thanks Courtney for the cool Tuesday Trigger and thank you Moxie Fab World for all the inspiration.
