Freshly Made Sketches #139- a sketch by Rita

I really wanted to play with some of the new stuff from the 2014-2015 Stampin' Up! annual catalog, but my order doesn't arrive until Tuesday. I have some products that I got during our pre-order and catalog premiere, so I guess that will have to do. I used the new Work of Art set for this week's Freshly Made Sketches challenge. I predict this will be a very popular set!

Here is my take on the sketch:

Freshly Made Sketches #125- a sketch by Narelle

I got away this weekend for a girl's weekend with some friends from high school. We try to do this a couple times a year. We always seem to pick a brutally cold weekend for our winter getaway. This morning, one of the cars wouldn't start and another had a flat tire. I was lucky that mine was survived the cold. It's so nice to get away and just relax and catch up with friends. Helps recharge my batteries, which I'll need since my husband left for a work trip this morning and won't be back until next Sunday.

I snuck in a card this afternoon for this week's Freshly Made Sketches challenge.

Fab Friday 19

I've been wanting to play with some of the products from the new Stampin' up catalog. Today I got to! I tried some out for the Fab Friday sketch.

I used the new Gingham Garden Designer Series paper for my take on the sketch:

The card base is Island Indigo. I punched 2 Daffodil Delight flowers using the fancy flower punch. I stamped the center piece with Island Indigo using a stamp from the Mixed Bunch set. I added a few basic rhinestones to the center for some bling. I stamped the sentiment with Island Indigo and notched the end off of the cardstock using the 1" square punch to create a banner look. Super easy!!
