I wanted to play with the sketch this week at
Sassy Lil Card Sketches. I found it very easy to take this one literally and just create. This is a quick 10-minute card that is so bright and cheerful! Here is Cherie's sketch and my card:
Items used: CTMH Caboodle paper and stickease (discontinued - but still available in
Studio J!);
Heartfelt Whimsy felt flower (3-12x12 die cut flet sheets for $1.50); Buttercup Bigger Brads; and
Sorbet dash ribbon (20 yds for $2.00).
Then I wanted to show you a fun project. I've been preparing the walls for painting for my craft room, and when I took off the plain old outlet covers, I got to thinking. Jerry is painting the room a light beige, so I found a sheet of paper in my stash. I am not sure what it is ( I want to say 7Gypsies?), but it was perfect for my project.
Decorative covers were nearly $5.00! I managed to recycle the old ones with a little paper and Martha's decoupage. Those delicate flowers are filled with so many different colors that I'll be able to pull out and decorate with. Jerry's painting tomorrow, so I am going to spend the weekend getting my craft room organized. I'll share pictures when it's all done!
