Hello and Happy Wednesday to you.

Today at Sweet Sketch Wednesdays I am taking you camping with Bug a Boo and Stella.

Jodie Mackrell from Bug a Boo is our fabulous sponsor this week. You should stop into Bug a Boo and check out all the images that Jodie has for you and the best part is she always has something new once a week.

This image just cracks me up...I am not a big camper and yes it is about the bugs! Speaking about bugs I have made little mosquitoes at the bottom with the buttons and tulle. Here is a close up of them.

Can you hear them buzzing come in for the bite?

 Here is Arlana's great sketch this week.

Nice Surprise in the mail

Hello Blogers,

I have been so busy this weekend with soccer tryouts for my daughter and then a Marching band meeting on Monday night. I have not had time to check my google reader....well when I came home today I had a very nice surprise in my mail box. It was a envelope from Flourishes,  I happen to win the prize of all the new releases for this month.  I just had to find time today and make a quick tag with two of the new sets that I got. 

The new sets are Letters in Blossom and Summer Blossoms. Two very beautiful sets. I made a quick book mark for my Daughter, she plans on doing a bunch of reading this Summer for her school work. This was made with all scraps that were on my work station, I think I could make about 6 cards with the scraps that are on my desk...LOL!

Thanks for stopping by. 

This flower is for you.

Hello Sweet Sketch Wednesday fans. We have a great sketch for you this week and one of our favorite sponsors- Sally Ann the owner and illustrator of Digi Stamp Boutique.  Here is my card or this week.

I used the sweet image called Louie and cupcake. I thought this would be just the cutest for a birthday card. He was colored with copics and some glitter was added to the cupcake and center of the flower. The red flowers on the side were had made with SU ribbon.

Here is the sketch for this week.

I bought this set-The Fairy Best about a year ago and this is my first time using it. I fell in love the the little mushroom houses. I have so many stamp sets that I do not use...It is a shame or is it a sickness. Any way I do love my stamps! Thanks for stopping by and have a good weekend. 

Flowers

Hello and It is the middle of the week!

This is the last week of school for my kids and my son is working hard on his finals. He has done great all year ( his first year of High school).  I am so proud of both of my kids this has been such a busy year for them both and they are keeping up with school and activities. They deserve a few months off of school.
