Sketchabilities #88

Here is the Sketch #88 at Sketchabilities. I used London Market and some MME Chevron paper.  I braided some twine and made the circles. Handstitched and used a Crocheted Doily. I added prima blooms and a Cathio Butterfly. This is my Daughter Serena when she was 17.5 months old.  The Dress was a present from my Dad and is a Family Heirloom. I hope you get some time to join the challenge at Sketchabilities.

Red Carpet Studio Card Challenge. Secret Garden

I have made a card today. I have had some scrappy goodness arrive in the mail and made this for a card challenge at Red Carpet Studios.  I had to have at least 1 flower.  I used Prima's Divine Collection and some Prima flowers.  I left it generic so it could be used for any Occasion. The other material I used are the embossing folder and a Broken earring.

Sketchabilities 87

Here is my first Design Team page for sketchabilities Challenge Blog. I used Authentique Lovely Collection.  I added Recollection and Wild Orchid Craft roses.  Prima bling and a variety of doilies.  I was able to hang the hearts on thread and did some hand stitching. I used some older tile letters I have had in my stash. The picture is my daughter Cherish after she had her face painted at Hollywood Studios in Florida.  I hope you get some time to create and join us at Sketchabilities.
