Saturday Sketch Time!

It's Saturday and another awesome sketch from Miss Lauren. Here is this week's sketch.




Here is what I came up with. I used the Holiday Defined set by Clear & Simple Stamps.



I really loved how this one turned out. Unfortunately the weather was bad here today so I could not get a nice photo outside. The flowers in used are Prima Flowers. I have to say I am so loving my Primas I got a while ago. I got a big bucket of them for 1/2 price when a local scrapbook store went out of business.

I hope you will play along with Lauren and her awesome sketch. Be sure to swing by the rest of her Sketch DT to see what everyone else came up with.

Unity Hip Hop Hangover

Hip Hop Hangover


Are you hung over? Not that way but do you have a Unity's Hip Hop Hangover? I didn't get much of a chance to hop yesterday but of course did check in. Did you see the awesome new "bundles" released! I am definitely getting one if not both, I of course have a boy and girl. But I'm thinking of getting the girl one with the cute train single. We'll see...

Anyhow, this is something I created for our Unity Addicts Challenge this past week. It was my turn to pick and I decided to pick an inspiration challenge. We used the big blog hop banner from last Saturday as inspiration. I ended up not using the colors but the layout. This did turn out to be a nice spring card though. I LOVE the Unity Butterflies!
