Let's Talk!

 I wont go into the song that pops in my head when I hear "Let's Talk...." lol. It for one shows my age and secondly is just a terrible song I do not want to connect with this post, lol!!! Chalk it up to being a child of the 90's I guess and having friends who listened to secular music and shared. I was more of a love song kind of girl :) Bryan Adams .. Oh Baby!

ANYWAY :D I have MORE NEW THINGS to share with you today.

We have a new digi just released to Fresh Brewed Designs. It is called Hello! :)

Funny ~ after I named it I made my cards ... then remembered when my daughter was a baby she called the phone a hello :D That made my heart smile... and a little sad... but back to the card!!! I created this card with a mix of Heidi Grace papers, the big BG pp is by my minds eye, card base is PaperTrey inc cardstock, ribbon from my stash in which I adhered tulle behind it to give it some pizzaz, prismacolor markers, a felt heart that was RAKed to me and a button!

This card was created and inspired by the Eat Sleep Stamp sketch this week. I did change it up a bit, I hope that is ok with you Tracy! I actually drew this image FOR this challenge ;). It just HAD to be :D lol.

Next up is another fun card using Hello, but first  the deets. Every First Friday at The Latte Lounge we start a NEW month long challenge. Since Simply Scrapping Crafts is closing, I am taking the idea for there and using it at TLL. We are creating every month with a sketch and an extra. This months (July) sketch is as follows:

 and the extra: add 2 embellies of choice. 

Easy and fun, right??? 

Here is my inspiration card:

I DID flip and flop and move my card around, but I DID use the elements on the sketch. I want the sketch to INSPIRE you not to limit you! If you want to join in, please hop on over to TLL and join us there for the fun.

Materials: PaperTrey Inc cardstock base, My Minds Eye dot paper, a heidi grace die cut, prismacolor markers, cricut carts: Accent Essentials and Plantin Schoolbook, stickles and bakers twine

Today I want to share a few new things with you. I am so glad you all had fun with my first sketch challenge for the Hannah Belle release,
I am offering up another sketch challenge.
I was sitting and doodling with my daughter the other day (she is quite the artist by the way!) when I looked over and fell in love with her little bugs she was drawing. I asked her permission to use hers as inspiration and she said "Sure, but if you put them in your shop, I want half!" LOL!!! At least I know she will be a 'good' business woman, lol!!! ;) I just thought they were tooo cute not to create into digis. I created my card with one of them. I called her Sweet Bee. There are 5 more (so far) in the buggy for you set.
