Sketchy Saturday and a lil Soccer

Hi Everyone,

My Latest card is for the Club Anya's Sketchy Saturday. I'm on a roll with the Anya stamps :) Actually I have family visiting starting tomorrow, and I won't be free again to make a card til next week :( PURE SADNESS, so I rushed this last one in while I still had the time.

Isn't she just the cutest of all cute!? This is actually an Anya Digital stamp, and I shrank her a lil cuz I wanted it to look like she was standing on one of the soccer balls. I love how versatile the Digi's are. Here is the Sketch I followed created by Pam over at Club Anya. As soon as I seen it, the Soccer balls just popped in my head lol.

Hope you guys like it and Thanks so much for stopping by.

Christmas in July ! and first time ever using a Sewing Machine

Hi everyone!

The first part of my post is a BIG BIG thank you to KelliJo over at SCS. I currently collect Anya stamps from the Greeting Farm, and the only stamp I did not have is the Elf Anya. I wasn't stamping when it first came out, and I was in NY caring for a very sick Mom who was recovering from surgery when it was re-released for Christmas of 2009. I missed it both times, and I was sure I would never see this beauty in my stamp collection ever. Out of pure desperation (haha) I posted on SCS, and KelliJo sent me the stamp and asked for nothing in return. How amazing is that!!!! It seriously brought tears to my eyes. The kindness involved in an act like this is beyond words. So I had to ink it up right away. With it being the 4th I was too busy with family - so I have been wanting so badly to use it, and I finally did today - YAY for me :)

Today the card I created for Farm Fresh Friday at the Greeting Farms :) The challenge this week is to SEW..akkkk. For those of you that know my Cards, also know that I do not Sew - not even a little bit lol. I understand the challenge says you can faux sew, but it got me thinking. I purchased a sewing machine about a year ago, but I haven't ever used it. I also have NEVER used a sewing machine in my life before. Well this challenge got me pretty determined to try and so after several hours of wrestling with my new machine lol - I did!!!

Here is my first sewing card, and the first time I have ever used a sewing machine in my life...

I think it came out incredible for my first time ever sewing, and I have been walking around beaming about it all day LOL!!!



Hope ou guess enjoyed this one :) Thank you so much for visiting and sharing in my very proud moment!

Happy 4th of July!

I used my Prismacolor Pencils to color in the image. Here is the Sketch that Jess created.

And Kelly made a card as well - A FIRST CARD ever using the same sketch of course.

How awesome is this for a first card. I couldn't believe how great it came out and I had pretty much no say in any of it lol.
