CTMH Skylark and Viva la Verve

Good morning crafty friends! Hope y'all are having a

good week! Tomorrow is Friday! Whoop whoop! I thought

I'd share a card with y'all before I head off to work.

For this card I used a February sketch from Viva la Verve.

For this card I used all Close To My Heart products. I used

a new paper pack called Skylark. I love how versatile the

colors can be, They can work for feminine or masculine.

I used one of the new hostess stamp sets called My Hero. I love

this set! My dad was a mechanic in the US Air force for

21 years. Now he is QA (quality assurance) for the

Air Force making sure those who fix the planes are doing so

properly. He says he's not always everyone's favorite person. lol.

So, anyways I knew I had to have this set because it made

me think of him :-) You can only get this set if you host

a party and have over $150 in sales. If you hit that mark, you get $25

in hostess rewards and you can get this set for only $6!

The inks I used where Lagoon, Desert Sand, and Sweet Leaf.

the reason that the clouds and the pilot look so light is

because I second generation stamped them to give them a lighter look.

Good morning crafty friends! Hope y'all are all having a

great week so far! Made it past Monday! I wanted

to share a card with y'all real quick before I go to work!

I made this last night. I used one of the February

sketches from Viva la Verve.

I used one of the new Close To My Heart paper packs

called Ariana. The stamps and sentiment are from Verve.

I stamped them using CTMH inks in Hollyhock, Crystal Blue,

Outdoor Denim, and Sweet Leaf. I also used Verve

dies to cut out the leaves and flowers and a

Nestabilities die for the circle.

Sketch N Scrap card #20

Good morning Sketch N Scrap fans! We are getting close

to the weekend! I'm always happy when Thursday

rolls around. Plus it's my most enjoyable day at work (usually).

Hope y'all are ready for another awesome sketch!

Sketch #20 due Feb 28th:

For my creation I decided to turn it into a square card.
I used all Close To My Heart products on this card except
the paper doily which came from Hobby Lobby. I used paper
from the new pack called Ivy Lane. I also added in some
Kraft card stock. I colored my doily with a sponge and
pear ink and stamped my sentiment with hollyhock ink. The sentiment
is from the Card Chatter - Birthday set. I then added some
Pink Glitter Gems and a Pewter Badge Button.
