A classic - TMS #223


Happy Tuesday to you!!  Happy 50th birthday to my big brother!!  **I have to say that my mother "planned" pretty well... my sisters' birthdays are exactly one week apart in the spring, and my brother's and my birthdays are exactly one week apart in the fall!   Just a useless fact for you! :)

Today, we have a great sponsor and a wonderful sketch for you!  My Creative Classroom is sponsoring this week.... the prize is a seat to the class of your choice!

"MCC is an online arts and crafts learning center. Our interactive and in-depth courses are instructor led and filled with wonderful projects and techniques to help you get the most out of your supplies."


This great sketch is by Melissa...

 
And here is my card...



My image and sentiment are from Doodle Pantry's Vintage Bicycle COLOR Plus.   The DP is 7 Gypsies, I used my Spellbinders Ovals and Doodle Parts, and added a Flora Doodle. 

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

We'd love to have you come and play along with us this week at Tuesday Morning Sketches!!

hi Debbie :) thank you for your kind comment you left on my blog about my little heart felt decoration. I use wadding? I think that's what you call batting in USA :) the one I get is a toy filler only I just buy it by half a meter and it lasts ages :) I could stitch felt forever, so relaxing and I can do it as im resting ♥ have a blessed weekend, hugs Marlou xxx
