Sassy Cheryl's Sassy and Sketchy


This week we are following this sketch that Sassy Trace/Tracey/Tracy created.  I have become a lover of sketches.  I spend so much time moving things around to try to create the perfect layout, but when you follow a sketch, everything quicky falls into place.  I used one of Cheryl's new digi stamps called Funky Two Layer Birthday Cake.  Isn't it a fun one.  If you would like one for yourself, just click here and you will be directed to the most time consuming Shop you can imagine.  I should have the place memorized by now, but everytime I go there I spend an hour trying to decide what to buy. 

Here's the recipe for this card:
Copic marker, Recollection Roses, Large scallop Spellbinder Die, Cosmo Cricket brad, paper doily, liquid embrodiery, MS lace doily edge punch ribbon and papers from my stash.

Well I am off to bed.  I have to go back to work in the morning and it is already very late.  I took the past two days off to work on my taxes, blah blah blah.  But the dasterdly task is done and I am experiencing my annual feeling of accomplishment.  Hate taxes with a passion, but we in America must keep our Uncle Sam happy.

So come on, grab a digi from Sassy Cheryl' s delightful shop and join us this week in the challenge.  It will be fun and you just might win a free digi for your efforts.
