Unscripted Sketch # 16...

Happy Saturday to you! It's time for another mind freeing sketch at Unscripted Sketches, this week there is a slight twist to the fun we used pictures rather than a stamped image. Here is this weeks sketch:



Here is what I came up with, these were some left over images from a Vegas
lay out I did some time ago.



I am really excited to see what the rest of you come up with by putting a little of you in US. BR-T

another wonderful gift from my friend Sarah...

Sarah thanks again for sharing these wonderful images with me, I am happy to say I ordered some of these lovelies and am so excited to send you images of Suzette, Ivy,Maisy Calliope! I can't hardly wait for these darlings to arrive...Ketto images are some of the most amazing creations out there! If you are interested go to Stamping Bella. I admit these images to me are pricey but worth it!



Isn't Ginger darling? I love the detailing going on with these images. Fearing I would lose the wonder of Ginger, I created the most simple card in BR-T card making history not to overpower the image. I cannot put in words the degree of difficulty this as for me! I hope all is inky and glittery in your neck of the woods... BR-T

Thank you Sarah...

Sarah thank you ever so much for sending me some images to play with, these little Anya stamps are too cute! Coloring,I am learning, isn't as easy as kids make it seem! Here's what I put together.

New paper and old stamps really compliment each other...

I was at one of my local craft stores that had 50% off individual sheets of paper, honestly I have never purchased paper in this fashion, I always buy the slabs. Wow what an exhilarating feeling to get all the designs you wanted!

Unscripted Sketches # 15...

Are you ready for another funtastic sketch?!? Unscripted Sketches # 15 is here today for you to play...
I hope everyone is having a terrific day! It is so beautiful outside and quiet inside,life is good to me!
Here is my card:



I used my Marvy circle punches and the smallest Spellbinders circle I had for this card. Using up scraps is the name of the game, gotta make room for the new papers I bought yesterday! They are so fun! Finally don't you love the new Watermark? Our awesome design team member Jeryn created these for each of us she rocks the house!
So with all that being said, stop on over to play not only will you enjoy the wonderful creations, we enjoy how you all put a bit of you in US! BR-T

more birthdays to come...

After loading this image I noticed a spot on the chipboard H, I believe its a sweat bee. Do you think my metal bee lured him in? BR-T

Birthdays everyday...

Do you mill through birthday cards? I cannot keep up...
OK people if you have not seen The Curious Life of Benjamin Button, rent it, Holy Cow I loved it so much i stayed up til 2 am to see it and then reviewed it the next day! To me Brad Pitt is a fair actor but if I were to surmise, this has to be his shining moment on the big screen. BR-T

perhaps someone is getting married today...

In honor of anyone who is getting married today...Of course, more than likely you're not blogging Best Wishes! BR-T

Unscripted Sketch # 14...

This sketch is so fantastic from Unscripted Sketches, I saw a particular stamp and my brain and fingers went into overdrive, mostly a lot of cut and paste. I hope you are having a great weekend.
I am excited to get home and create! I can't wait to see what you all came up with so stop by! I am off to learn about trauma to the bodies...

so blessed....

I am, though I forget about it on a daily basis. I don't know when it happened but I have become a cranky monster! I wear a green bracelet from VBS that says Watch for God to keep myself in check, if you asked my kiddos they'd say it doesn't help. The problem is I've been viewing things under the pretense of the grass is always greener. Seriously I'm in need of some sort of wake up call for all my true blessings!
I am wondering if does anyone want to do a image swap? I specifically want some Ketto or gorjuss images or those awesome images from the greeting farm or anything fun to shade. I have some whimsical Doodle Factory Creatures I also have some fun rocket ship images and a ton of close to My Heart stamps. Ithink if we stamped the images on 4in.x4in. pieces of white card stock, that would give us some wiggle room. Let me know!



OK here is my card using a retired CTMH stamp called School Fun. I cut the school bell of to have a house image and that little bird is adorable! This will probably be my last posting until Saturdays new Unscripted Sketches challenge #14, I have an EMT conference this weekend...of course I will be bringing the laptop along so I'll be checking out everyone's amazing work in my free time! Remember we all are so blessed...

Blast off...

Mojo Monday is doing their first sketch of the month blast off with prizes to win for best of show, of course with 300 plus entries...whatever! Anyhow I love sketch #94, and I have been itching to ink up this stamp set for some time, now is the time!
Both Cuttlebug Challenges and Our Creative Corner wants to see the colors of Red, White & Blue plus a few extras. So what do you get when you mix it all up...




I hope you like it! If you get a chance this week we'd love for you to stop by Unscripted Sketches for our fun Challenge! Be Well, BR-T

One card three challenges...

Here is card I completed for multiple challenges:
Inky Impressions #4 wants distressed work so I sanded the scalloped edges of my card stock and inked the snowflake to make the embossing stand out.
Stamp Something wants a Christmas themed card what a great way to cool off by envisioning snow!
And last but not least Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge wants to see 3 ribbons and this is open ended...

So after absorbing these ideas in, this is what came out...

Happy 4th of July...

It's Saturday and the 4th and life is awesome! This weeks sketch at Unscripted Sketches is really grand and the fabulous takes by my fellow DT ladies are sparklin' so go check them out! Jeryn who not only designs killer digital cards and lay outs, conjured up an amazing Bio page for the Unscripted DT. I read through all the answers of the questions to compare answers it was really interesting...mostly a relief I guess, now I know I am not the only one who has a slight organizational impairment!
Anyhow here is sketch #13


and here is what I came up with...



We are so thrilled to see we are at almost 100 followers, now we just want to see you all go out the and get Unscripted...
