Unscripted sketch w/ FFF

This is my first take on an Unscripted Sketches challenge #34. I didn't follow it to the "T", but oh well. Not one of my best cards either. It also ties in last Friday's Farm Fresh Friday color challenge of "chocolate chip, kiwi kiss, baja breeze, and whisper white". What?! SU! colors?! Someone needs to talk to Marie and Jessica! ;)

I've had this old, old DCWV paper sitting around and wanted to use it up. If you look closely, you can tell this was one of the images I inked with CTMH ink before I learned about Copics and inks. Thanks Nona for this cute image though! And thank goodness TGF gallery is the one that hosts the images for the challenges so I can post this a day later than the due date! Hee hee!

Survivor and Bones tonight! Too bad I have my monthly card class tonight and won't be able to watch them. :( The trick is to watch them online before I go to work in the morning and my co-workers try to tell me all the details. I swear they do it on purpose!

Materials

Stamps: TGF HG Snuggle, CTMH sentiment

Paper: DCWV dp, CTMH cs

Other: CTMH bitty brads and inks, misc. ribbon, Copics, foam tape

Not so Eskimo...

I love how vesitile Basic Grey papers can be. This card for instance, uses Eskimo Kisses dp as the background, but it doesn't look "Christmas-y" at all. Fun fun!

Can't believe it's the LAST episode of Glee tonight!! WWAAAHH!!! D: *crying silent tears*

Hope it's everything this great season has built it up to be. April is soooo far away. Hope it comes out on DVD fast so I can get my fix whenever!

Materials

Stamps: TGF Birthday Anya, CTMH sentiment

Paper: BG Eskimo kisses, CTMH cs and pink dot dp

Other: Memento ink, CTMH ink, Copics, Nesties, Prima flowers, PTI button, foam tape

Ahhhh...

Hee hee! Isn't this Me Time Anya cute? I thought this would work well with my pearlized paper and my leftover BG paper.

I'm so ready to take a long HOT bath myself. I'm already tired of it being cold. It was 17 degrees when I left for work this morning. I love the sunshine during the day, but man! So cold! At least it's not snowing.

Materials

Stamps: Me Time Anya-TGF

Paper: BG Eskimo Kisses, CTMH cs, misc. pearl paper

Other: CTMH Ribbon and buttons, Memento ink, Copics

Overdue thank you

My friend Kate that's in Ladies Oriental Shrine with me was very gracious last month and gave me a 4' greeting card rack from her old store she used to have. I was late getting this thank you card to her mostly because I was waiting for this water lily stamp I ordered from TGF to arrive. The water lily is the emblem of LOS and I knew she would appreciate it.

Materials
Stamps: Me Time Anya-TGF, sentiment-CTMH
Paper: MME dp, CTMH cs, pearlized cardstock
Other: Scallop Nesties, liquid pearls, Stazon ink, Copics, Memento ink, EK scallop border punch, foam tape.

A little inspiration...

I was looking at all of my daily blog reads the other day and came across this layout on Teresa Kline's blog by the Verve gals. It looked like it'd be fun to try out, so here's my take:

I did about four different things for the main image. I kept making something, not liking it, and throwing it out. I finally settled on this final image. The background paper is just stamped cs.

Going to a cool fundraiser in downtown Seattle tonight with my friend Josie. It's put on my Lara at The Sweet Spot to benifit local charities. There's going to be local music, good food, and drinks. I love doing things that help others. Tonight's going to be rad!

Materials: All CTMH. "Just for the holidays" ss, "Snow Flurries" ss, NE ivy and white daisy cs, Evensong and Jingle L2pps, cranberry and olive inks,EK corner rounder, sponge.

Other: Liquid pearls, EK scallop border and circle punches, foam tape.

Visions of sugarplums...

Lolli Anya, take two. I thought using her for a Christmas card would be fun. Same layout and stamp as yesterdays post, but a totally different look. You can't really tell from the picture, but the sentiment says "sweet" holidays.

Another great night of shows lined up tonight. Can't wait to see what shenanigans Russel stirs up tonight on Survivor. Love to hate him.

Materials:

Stamps--Lolli Anya and "sweet" sentiment-TGF, "holidays" sentiment and stitches-CTMH

Paper--Eskimo Kisses-BG, dotted paper and cs-CTMH

Lollipop, Lollipop, oh Lolli, Lolli, Lolli...

Hee hee! Isn't she soooo cute?! I totally had that song in my head as I was coloring her. When I first saw Lolli Anya at TGF, I had to have her. So fun! Totally perfect for making cards for The Sweet Spot too!

You know what else is sweet? That Glee is on tonight! I can't wait! I'm also sad though since this is one of the last two episodes of the season. :( Hopefully it's popular enough to come back!
