CPS 105

Here is the sketch this week over at CPS . . .

And here is my card . . .

I've used PTI Pure Poppy, Ripe Avocado, Dark Chocolate and Stampers Select White cardstock. Stamp set Teachers Apple. I used some deco scissors I had to try and make a postage like cut --- Note to self: Me and deco scissors do not get along very well. Ribbon is Dark Chocolate Swiss Dot by PTI, button Junkitz (I still have a whole collection of Chatterbox buttons)

This is the second of the weekly sketches that I've been doing - gets my mojo up and at it again. Next I need to finish up on the "box" for keeping my finished cards in and sorting through the photos from Mom's 90th Birthday.

Thanks to everyone that sent cards and their best wishes. We celebrated Sunday and on Monday, her actual birthday, I took her to lunch at Kayson's and she enjoyed the day out. I thank God everyday for this woman. It's not always easy but what wonderful blessings we've had.

Another wonderful sketch over at Card Positioning Systems this week AND it's sponsored by Papertrey Ink. Below is my take on it. I'm not that happy with my card - it just seems to be lacking something.

All supplies - PTI - With Sympathy stamps; Sweet Blush, Stamper's Select White & Berry Sorbet cardstock; Berry Sorbet & New Leaf ink, Spring Moss ribbon. Added a little Glossy Accents to the flowers and butterfuly.
