Warm Winter Wishes

Hi Everyone! I have been somewhat absent this last week because all my little guys are in various stages of a really nasty cold. My two eldest are starting to feel better but my little one is just starting. Needless to say, Mummy is sooooo sleep deprived and starting to feel sick herself. I haven't had any time to craft or blog-hop at all!


Last week, we had our first Whimsy Virtual Stamp night and I designed a sketch for the challenge. Totally new territory for me and if you'll notice, this is #3.....you'll be seeing my very first one very soon ;) . One thing I learned. Make the card - then make the sketch. I did it the other way around and found myself wanting to change things which I couldn't very well do since it was my sketch to start off with! LOL! Anyways, here is the sketch and the card. If you'd like to try my sketch out (you don't need to use a whimsy stamp) I'd love to see your creations. Just link them to my post here.





  • Stamps: Whimsy Seal and Sentiment
  • Ink: Memento
  • Paper: SU! Blue Bayou, Alpine
  • Coloring: Copic Markers and Airbrushing
  • Embellies: Blue Bayou ribbon, Dollar store snowflakes and brads
Thanks for stopping by. Don't forget to stop by Sketch Saturday tomorrow. It is the turn of another of the DT to create a sketch. Any guesses as to who it might be? ;)
