Tuesday Morning Sketches #277


Happy Tuesday to you!!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!!  In a couple of days, many of us will be overeating at our Thanksgiving dinner, but I hope you take time to be thankful to God for all His wonderful blessings!!  I'm so thankful that my parents are here with us this week.  (They had Thanksgiving last month, so they are getting turkey overload this year!)  I'm also thankful for one of my blessings who will be celebrating his birthday on Thursday.  Our son will be 13 years old!  (It will be "official" -- I will have my fourth teenager) I'm so thankful for him!


Be thankful!  But my card is a Christmas card. :)  My DP is Basic Grey 12x12 Wassail that I got a couple of years ago and LOVED!  I thought I had used it all, but I was going through my paper and was excited to find a few stray pieces that I put straight to work!! 



Our sponsor this week is Dies R Us.  They have a wonderful selection of dies from so many different companies.  I wish I could win this week! LOL  After embossing folders, dies are my next love. ♥


Nina created our wonderful sketch for this week...

Thanks!!


I've got a fun thank you card to show you...



My image is Doodle Pantry "Pumpkin Monkey."  Isn't he cute?!?  This is what pumpkins are for... looking good.  I might be the only person on the planet who doesn't like pumpkin pie, but I can stand alone. :)  They are so cute to decorate with, but that's all they're good for, IMHO. :)

Sentimental Sunday #234 - Heartfelt thanks
Sister Act #84 - Anything goes
Paper Pretties PWC337 -- Thanksgiving/Be thankful

Thanks for stopping by and have a blessed day!!

Rudy Doody Reindeer - TMS #276


Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!!   Thanks to those who participated in our awesome judged challenge last week... almost every entry used the twist!! :)

This week, I've got a fun Christmas card to show you...



I apologize for the poor quality of my picture!  My laptop is dying, so when this pic was taken and I didn't get a chance to edit it or add my watermark.  Believe it or not, it is Kraft paper though it looks a bit pink-ish in the pic. :/  The DP is K&Co Mod Holiday Design.  I used Cuttlegbug's Swiss Dots EF.  My image is Diane's Daydream Designs Rudy Doody the Reindeer.

Diane of Diane's Daydream Designs is our sponsor for this week...


Here's our great sketch by Jessi...

Harvest Bounty


I love fall!  Beautiful leaves, pumpkins (for decorating, not eating!), the fresh feeling of the chill in the air... I could go on and on, but now all the leaves have fallen, the grass is dead, and we have a bit of snow!  So though this card is all about fall and Thanksgiving, it's almost out of date already. :)


I used Card Cut Pumpkin SVG e-cuttable.  This set is one of Doodle Pantry's November's releases.  To give the flower some dimension, I used my stylus and rubbed it over the petals and leaves.  The image is an outline from Harvest Bounty colored with my Spectrum Noir markers.

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a blessed day!

TMS #274-Judged Challenge



Today is Remembrance Day (if you're in Canada or Britain)
or Veterans Day (if you're in the US).




Take a moment to remember those who have served and those who have given all.  If you see a serviceman/woman and have the opportunity, say "thank you" to them.  While at an airport last week, we saw a young man in a wheelchair.  As he turned, we saw he had no legs.  My husband went up to the man and his wife, asked if he had served, and thanked them for their service.  The man was appreciative, and then the wife said, "I didn't do anything." Oh yes, she did!  She waited for her soldier and is by his side now as life will never be the same again.  If any of my readers are serving or have served.  I want to say thank you!!!

It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!

This week is our JUDGED CHALLENGE with a TWIST!!  
We choose the winner this week and also pick a Top 5!!  
Our TWIST is "Pumpkins & Leaves" (I went with leaves)

Here's my card...


Here's our wonderful sketch by Nina...  Can't wait to see what you do with it!


 Our sponsor this week is Digital Delights by Louby Loo!  Play along for a chance to win!


My image is Acorn Mouse.  I colored him with my Spectrum Noir markers. The sentiment was printed and sitting on my desk and I can't remember where it's from.  My DP was also sitting on the shelf after being torn out of a stack, so I can't remember where it came from either!  My leaves -for the challenge of "Pumpkins & Leaves"- are the brads that I bought these brads the first scrapbook I ever made back in 2005.   I am really using my "stash" this week!!    

Thanks for stopping by!  Be sure to go check out the creations from the rest of our DT...
