Here is this weeks sketch challenge from GYSO
For those lucky lucky people that don't have to work tomorrow, happy creating!!!
I MAY join in on the fun tomorrow evening, if I can keep my eyes open after my work day at the bank...which BTW ends around 7:30 AFTER the supper dishes are done...you know the routine. So if I don't catch up tomorrow, I'll be posting on Saturday as it's laundry day and that's my favorite time to scrap....am I strange or what..nah just a busy working Mom! <3
I think I will try to do something with the March Stamp of the Month from Close To My Heart

Get Your Sketch On - Life Is Good

For this weeks GYSO sketch, I used 7 Gypsies Lille Paper : Life is Good!!! I used Smooch Sprtiz on the Riff Raff chipboard.
For the bottom strip, I covered it with 2 way tape and then sugar beads. The effect is glorious, I wish you could see it IRL!

Get Your Sketch On - Hay Fever

 I am a week behind with this sketch, but I really liked the design so used it for this layout.
I used My Minds Eye Stella and Rose pp and Prima bling.
The title and die cut shapes are cut with my Cricut and the Country Life cartridge.
