Life is Sweet

I hope you all had a wonderful Easter weekend! I enjoyed lots of great time with my boys and a nice dinner with my family last night. I also found some time and energy to get some crafting in so I decided to participate in the Get Sketchy challenge this week.


Here is the sketch I was working with. I thought this card turned out pretty cute...makes me want to have a picnic! I am loving the new gingham ribbon from May Arts. And I thought the sentiment (from My Favorite Things) worked perfectly with the sweet strawberries. I hand cut that strawberry in the center.

The patterned papers are from BoBunny (dots) and Basic Grey (Nook & Pantry).


And here's the latest treasury I created over on Etsy.
I just love this color and especially the ocean photo...so soothing. I could so use a peaceful beach vacation! :) Click HERE to get a closer look at these items and the fabulous shops that sell them.

Thanks for stopping by today! I'll have more to share later this week!

Get Sketchy and Get a Prize (From Me!)

Hello blogging friends! I am excited to share that I am sponsoring the Get Sketchy challenge this week! When Bree contacted me to ask if I would consider sponsoring I was so thrilled, and I am hoping you all will join in the fun for a chance to win one of my Creativity Kits! I put together a special Spring themed Creativity Kit especially for this challenge...want to see it?!

Would you like to win these goodies?! All you have to do is participate in the Get Sketchy Challenge this week. You can see all the details and the sketch over on the Get Sketchy blog HERE. Bree was kind enough to send me the sketch in advance so that I could play along. Here's my card using some of the same products from the kit.


I'll be giving this card to my mom for her birthday in May. I just love the colors and patterns in the Making Memories Flutter collection. I distressed some of the circles to add a little texture to the card.

And if you love that corrugated scalloped circle on my flower, I have some colorful and natural ones for sale in my shop! Click HERE to check them out.

I can't wait to see what you all come up with for the Get Sketchy challenge!

I'll be back tomorrow with my Etsy Inspired Challenge project and you know there's always a great prize to be won then too! :)
