Good Morning!

I'm so excited because it's Day 1 of the TAWS August release sneak peeks!!

Which will be available in the store in august to purchase.

RetroSketch #74

Happy Saturday!!

It's time for a new RetroSketch.

This week's is based on an old one of mine, which you can see here.

I used the flat bottomed clouds die by MFT and a stamp from

one of my Studio Calico card kits that I have just recently started getting.

Please head on over to the RetroSketches blog to see the gorgeous creations that Arielle, Laurie and Lisa have to share. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!

you rock

Good Morning!

Things are starting to wind down here, the Stampede only has one day left.

Thank goodness! Don't get me wrong I like parts of the Stampede.

It's just that things are so busy, and it's saddens me that animals die every year for sport. 

I do LOOOOOVE the midway rides and deep fried foods though. :)

Anyway, I have a card made using this week's new RetroSketch.

It's based on this beauty by our July headliner Lisa.

Now if you think that card is beautiful wait until you see her re-take!

Gorgeous!

My card isn't exactly beautiful, it's a bit hardcore!!

But I was wanting to use the skulls from the July TAWS set,

Black Beard's Loot.

I also used some yummy Trendy Twine in Limeade, from Annie's Paper Boutique.

Head on over to the RetroSketches blog to admire the gorgeous creations The other girls have for you this week.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

I also have to add a couple of pics of the creature taking up all my time lately!!
