What a week!

Is it Friday already? This week flew by and I'm happy that the weekend is here, but I know it will fly by just as fast. Anyone else feel that way? Probably not those of you buried in the snow, or counting the minutes until your team gets to the big game Sunday. Hopefully I can craft a bit...

I haven't found time to play in many challenges lately so I set out to make a funky Valentine and go a bit outside my comfort zone. I combined this week's Mojo Monday sketch (wow, lots of elements, which I altered the shape of a bit) and the PPA color challenge: Melon Mambo, Pretty in Pink and Black. I fought the urge to put any white in there, making it a true challenge! The heart is a bit of chipboard covered in a nice pink paper that has small white XOs on it...just didn't photograph well despite my best efforts.

I'm off to relax on the couch a bit, but be sure to come back tomorrow for a new sketch from Unscripted Sketches. I used it to make a 10 minute scrap card!


Smiles,

  2. Love all of the details on this card! Especially the embossed black CS. It's really pretty. And your US card for this week is fab too :-)
    Enjoy time with your friend and the game on Sunday (As for me...I'd rather scrap than watch football, LOL! But I do love the enthusiasm and screaming of the rest of my family during the game)

  4. Wow this is lovely. I really like the colors. I have to do one in these colors. I love the I Love You and the way the y hangs over. How did you do that?
