I C sketches Challenges

Snow, WOW,
Wonderful if you are sitting indoors keeping toasty warm that is, it's years since I saw and felt real crispy snow like today...Oh, the wonderful patterns as those huge snowflakes fall and settle and the grandchildren turning them into little works of art with smiling faces...
Snowmen and women being built the minute they step off the school bus... they just do not feel the cold... they look so healthy with rosey red cheeks and eyes which sparkle... the children that is and not the snow people...lol.


Well Chris and I got together to take on some of this weeks challenges, she introduced me to a new challenge blog 'IC Sketches' last week...

It's new to me and although I have not been making as many cards these days I was encouraged by Chris to have a go this week again...


and you wouldnt believe just how long it took me, I cannot even hint about it, I would be tooo embarressed as I do not find it easy to work to a sketch... I got there in the end.




Using the NEW cute as cute can be Crafty Individual kitten stamp I set to, you can find this and more gorgeous stamps over HERE.




I did take on the Sketch Challenge last week too but didn't get it posted... so here it is using the gorgeous Cosmo Cricket valentine papers all chocolate and strawberry creams...yummy.




The photo's are not as good as I would like because I am still learning about this new camera...oh how I loved my Brownie Box Camera all those years ago!!!

Stick with me I promise to get better...lol.

Thanks for looking ...keep warm.

I like sketches, sometimes. Sometimes, not. these cards are great! And so are the snowpeople! I am doing a live make and take from Scrapyland tonight on Ustream...I think it would be 1 or 2 am your time though because it will be 8 pm in Chicago.
