Cardmaps Sketch @ {Caardvarks} Day 7

No scraps today...I cut 2 fresh sheets of AC 12x12. The sentiment is a TLC rub-on and the metals are SU!

I went by Greenberry's for my chocolate tea cake fix and a mocha latte. The district manager came in and told me they had an event and bought up all the birthday cards. So while I was waiting for Caardvarks to post today's Becky Fleck sketch, guess what I did this morning? I'll post those tomorrow...

I can't see what Caardvarks has in store for bloggers next week! I hope that Becky Fleck will be back. She is awesome :)

Cardmaps Sketch @ {Caardvarks} Day 6

Wow! I've made it through Day 6...one day to go! I am lovin' these Becky Fleck sketches. For today's card I used Sharon Ann scraps that I used on a previous project and had not yet filed away :) The green cs is Bazzill. The rub-on and ribbon is AC. I used an SU! punch for the flower. I curled up the petals for added dimension. Viola!

Cardmaps Sketch @ {Caardvarks} Day 5

Scrap of SU! dp, Michael's ribbon, K&Co. acetate sentiment, DCWV mini brad, cream cs. My dh, DH bought the K&Co. acetates for me 1 1/2 years ago as part of my Mother's day gifts. I wanted them so much, and I just used my first one LOL!

Cardmaps Sketch @ {Caardvarks} Day 4

I made the blue floral & stripes card first. I used discontinued MM double-sided cs, 6 mini brads, and an SU! green gem brad. Sentiment by PSX. I agonized over this card, and I'm not sure about the end result. So I took a shower and the idea to use black, white, and red popped in my head. The black & white are both Bazzill cs. Sentiment is Hero Arts. Black snaps by MM. Faux stitching using a paper piercer and a white gel pen. The red polka dot paper I found in the trash can at the scrapbook store. (I love me a good scrap!) This one seems to be too bare at the bottom. Hmmmm....any suggestions?

Cardmaps Sketch @ {Caardvarks} Day 3

Thanks to Caardvarks 7 day Cardmaps challenge, I am slowly getting caught up on some cards I needed to make. My card from Day 1 is a thank you card for our realtor who gives us a gift certificate every year at Christmas. My card from Day 2 is a thank you note for my husband to write for his birthday presents from my parents (dh's birthday was yesterday). Lastly, Mr. Al Saunders requested some congratulations cards. Here it is! I hope he likes it :)

New sketch day 2

Here is my card using today's {Caardvarks}sketch. I used all scraps from a class I took at Sue's house last spring...I love when I use my scraps. All are SU! products except the mini brad (DCWV).
