Hi!  Yes I’m still here but its been busy here with school holidays and preparation for the Stampathon coming up.  I have been stamping AND scrapping a little but don’t want to give away too much to those who are coming along on the 1st August.

The Spring Mini Catalogue will also be launched on the 1st August and my preorder of a few goodies arrived the other day.  I’ve used a few of the new papers in my sketch challenge so you get a sneak peak at that anyway.

This sketch challenge is from Taylored Expressions.  I’ve often looked at Taylor’s sketches but have never got around to playing so here is my first attempt.

This is the sketch: 

 and here is my card: 

 and a close up of the papers: 

Stamp set:  Occasional Greetings
Cardstock:  Kraft, Baja Breeze, Whisper White, Chocolate Chip
Inks:  Baja Breeze
Accessories:  Parisian DSP, Flower Fusion Too, 1 3/8″ circle punch, 1 1/4″ circle punch, Kraft taffeta ribbon, clear brad

I hope you like it and I hope to be back soon if Wordpress lets me upload pics.  Aaaarrrggh!

Cheers
