Freshly Made Sketches #226- A sketch by Rita

I'm typically not a fan of purple, which may be the main reason I've never embraced the Minnesota Vikings, to my father's chagrin. (Go Pack!) I do love Stampin' Up's Blackberry Bliss though. I'm sad that it's time as an in color is coming to an end soon. I can only hope that it makes it's way into the main line up someday. I chose to use it (a lot of it) for this week's Freshly Made Sketches challenge. 

Here is my take on the sketch:

My lighting wasn't very good today, so I apologize for the shadows. Also, the ink seems like a different shade than the paper in the picture, but not in real life.  Can't explain it.

Freshly Made Sketches #186- A sketch by Jen B.

It's been a long week. My husband was out of town all week for work, and each day was super busy. I felt like I was chauffeuring the kids everywhere. I was so tired that I was in bed by 9pm on Friday! It's funny to think there was a time that 9pm was when Friday night was just starting for me. 

I struggled with trying to come up with something for this week's Freshly Made Sketches challenge.

I fiddled around with a bunch of stuff and finally settled on this:

Freshly Made Sketches # 176 - a sketch by Cindy H.

I am so excited for the warm up we are supposed to be getting in Minnesota this week. They are predicting 50's and even a possible 60 degrees over the next week. I am so ready for spring! I am tired of boots and winter jackets. I often question why I live in Minnesota, but the other 3 seasons do make it worth it. Even though the sun was shining and I should get out and enjoy the day, I holed up in my craft room and made a card for this week's Freshly Made Sketches challenge.
