Bundles of hearts - TMS #369

Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!!  

My card is a sweet one today.  At least in my opinion. ;)

Don't you agree that this little guy is just adorable???   He's Bundle of Hearts from Crafty Sentiments.  He's fussy cut then attached to a Spellbinders Standard Circle and Petite Scalloped Circle.  The main panel is embossed with Darice Dot Background.  All my paper is from my scrap box.  The little charm was out of its pkg, so I don't know where it came from.  Here's a close up...

My image was from our sponsor for this week... Crafty Sentiments!  The prize is 3 digis of the winners choice.  They have some sweet, sweet images!!! 

 
Here's our sketch for the week...

Handy father's day -- TMS #352

Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!!  

It's not a "requirement" for fatherhood that a man be handy with tools, but both my father and my husband are very handy with tools, so this "little handyman" is a great image for me to use on a Father's Day card...

My DP is all scraps.  The banner is DCWV corrugated DP.  My image is Handy Harry from Digital Delights and is colored with Spectrum Noir markers then fussy cut.  (He's a little dark... I printed the color image in black and white by mistake and just colored him rather than printing again.)  The square behind him is cut out with Spellbinders Celebra'tions Squares.  My sentiment is a Recollections rubber stamp.

Here's our sketch for this week...

We've got a new sponsor this week -- Crafty Sentiments!!   We're so happy to have them sponsoring!!  The prize is 3 digital stamps of the winner's choice. :)

Chicken soup - TMS #348

Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!!   Do you like chicken soup when you're not feeling well?  I've got some for you today... figuratively, anyway.

Sending a hello - TMS #344

Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!!   Today, I've got a cute (IMHO) card for you...

My image is First Class Post from Di's Digis, colored with Spectrum Noir markers.  It is cut out using Spellbinders Labels Small.  The edges are inked with TH walnut stain.  The DP is Prima Epiphany, and the clear sentiment is TPC Studio.  It's hard to see in the pic, but it's stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa and heat embossed with Stampabilities Iridescent embossing powder.  It's cut out with Spellbinders Petite Ovals and Petite Scalloped Ovals.

  
Our sponsor this week is Di's Digi Stamps!  Such cute digis!!!  The prize is a $12 voucher to the store.
 

 

Here's our sketch for the week...  I printed my image a bit larger than I had intended so it kind of takes over the card front compared to that element on the sketch, but this has potential for CAS, fancy, or fun, so show us your style!

Challenges...
Chocolate, Coffee, & Cards #105 - use ribbon

I'd rather be skiing!! -TMS #336

*** Click HERE to visit my blogversary + giveaway post!!! ***

Happy Tuesday to you!  It's time for Tuesday Morning Sketches!!  I've got a card today that could not have been more perfectly timed.  Take a look, then I'll explain.

Our family loves to ski!  We are not experts by any stretch of the imagination, but we love it. [In the spirit of total truthfulness... my son does not ski... he snowboards.;) ]  Sadly, last year, even with all the snow we received, it never worked in our schedule to go skiing.  Soooo sad!!!  
But... our wonderful church family gave my husband and me a get-away of 3 days at Smuggler's Notch in VT and we were scheduled to head over there today!!  We were scheduled to go today....  until a stomach virus and severe sinus issues hit our home.  So... not today!  :(  Hoping and planning for next week.  We're looking forward to time away {♥just the two of us♥} and to hitting the slopes!

Here's our wonderful sketch by Melissa...  another of our favorites from 2015... this week it is my choice...  *I LOVE this sketch!  Since it debuted last March, I have used it many, many times!!

My DP is Recollections Cozy Lodge and my image is FTHS Rather Be Skiing Snowman.  He is colored with my Spectrum Noir markers (DR7, OR2, EB7, EB2, GG1, GG2, BT1).
He was cut out with Spellbinders A2 Matting Basics A and inked with TH antique linen.  The snowflake is one of Sweet 'n Sassy's Small Snowflakes dies.  Brown hemp bow finishes it off.

I am sponsoring this week with a snowman stamp set, soooooo... we'd love you to make your card a winter theme, too, if you'd like.  :)    Play along to win this Hampton Art "Let It Snow" stamp and die set!

Challenges...
Di's Digi Designs Challenge - snow or snowflakes
