Sketch Frenzy Friday May 1st. 2015

Hello to all, I hope this post finds you well and happy!

I can't believe it is May 1st already can you! HAPPY MAY DAY! I have had a really bzy week how about you? Jeff went out of town on a business trip (He will be home tonight YIPPEE!!!) this week so I had to get all my little projects I assigned myself to get done while I had the chance. Know what I mean lolol.

I re-did my downstairs powder room, it turned out really cute at lease I think it
did. I painted the walls kind of Daffodil Delight color, hung new curtains and painted the cabinet a beautiful Chocolate Brown color.  So needless to say I am pooped out!

I did find time to make a card this week -it's my sketch so I had better make a card right lol!

Here is the sketch;

It is a very basic layout and it makes for a fast card. Give it a try.

Here is what I came up with;

 This is a super fast card to make. All of the elements are from the Butterfly Basics stamp set. I used the Butterfly Thinlets Die that coordinate with this set. I used Daffodil Delight, Island Indigo, Calypso Coral, Wisteria Wonder, Pear Pizzazz and Blushing Bride Inks.
That's all there was to it. The freedom of this set is that you can create different background scenes unique to each card. Here is a look at the inside.

Thanks for stopping by this week. I will try to post some photos of the bathroom later today. This sketch is so easy and creates really fast cards so give it a try. We would love to see what you create from it. http://www.sketchfrenzyfriday.blogspot.com/

Sketch Frenzy Friday 4/24/15

Hello everyone, I hope this post finds you all well and happy!

Where does the time go? I am amazed that it is the end on April already! WOW! I just can't believe it. We have been working so hard in the garden trying to get it all done by mid May that it seems that is all I can think about these days. I hurt my knees digging a few weeks ago and that has slowed me down a bit. My brain doesn't think my body is near 60 and out of shape so I think I can do what I did when I was in my 30's. LOL Not anymore I'm pooped and sore by the time its ready for bed.

However, I did make time to get a card done for this weeks sketch!  Carol Reed
is our designer this week and she did a great job with it. I really liked working with this sketch. Thanks Carol! Here is her sketch;

and this is what I came up with from it.

My inspiration for this card came from a card that Amy K made with a different stamp from the stamp set called Moon Lake. She also used the background stamps from Work of Art in different colors. I used Pool Party and Pistachio Pudding inks. Thanks Amy for the inspiration! What a great idea to use the two colors and the focal image. Don't you think it makes for such a great look for a focal image?

I used Mossy Meadow ink and card stock. A strip of Burlap Ribbon and a scrap of Painted Blooms DSP. The double bow was made from the SAP Ribbon and Button set in Lost Lagoon.

Here is a look a the inside.

That's all there is to this card for this week. Thanks for stopping by and we would love to see what you come up with from this weeks sketch. Here is our link  http://www.sketchfrenzyfriday.blogspot.com/.
so you'll know where to load it so we can check it out!

I'm getting ready to take some photos of the yard this weekend, so you can see just how much of the yard we have dug up!The plan is to dig up most of the grass. Leaving just small area's that Jeff has to mow around. Well that's the plan anyhow lol.

Hello everyone, hope you are all enjoying the wonderful Spring weather and all the gorgeous blooming trees. My neighborhood is full of color it is so nice to drive around town and see everything coming to life again.

My Little Patch of Dirt is getting there too. Almost everything in the garden we planted last year seems to have made it through the Winter. We decided to really expand our garden this year and we have been digging new beds for a couple weeks now. My back, knees and hands are really feeling the effects of our labor. But it is so going to be worth it!

So sorry I have been missing as of late! We only have a short growing season of 180 days on the Eastern Coast. Jeff and I are coming to find out you have to get busy when you can to get it all done and boy have we been busy!

I made a card the week before last and forgot to post it? Last week was a blur but I do have a card for this week and I have already given it away. I am so glad I have to take pictures or I would have forgotten what it looks like! Oh ya, I am the sketch designer this week. Here is this weeks sketch,

and this is what I came up with.

I used the Mixed Bunch stamp set and the coordinating Punch called Blossom to create my floral focal image. I chose Strawberry Slush, Whisper White and Basic Black as my main color pallet. The DSP background is from Back to Black. The sentiment is from a SAB stamp set called Simply Wonderful. I really like the clean lines of the DSP with the bold floral image I think it really makes that flower pop! You knew I couldn't let the center of the flower go without a littlt bit of bling lol.

Here is a look at the inside.

See how different the flower looks without the black background piece? It is amazing isn't it! The sentiment is also from the SAB stamp set Simply Wonderful.

Hope you all have a great week! Enjoy this beautiful time of the year with warmer temperatures and all the lovely spring colors. I love Spring and Fall the best don't you.I don't miss So CA this time of year at all!

Please join us this week and show us what you can create with this sketch. We would love to see it. http://www.sketchfrenzyfriday.blogspot.com/.

I am going to take pictures of the garden to show you all the work that we are doing.

 Take care and chat soon,

We have a really cool sketch for ya this week! Elizabeth Harris designed it and I loved it!!! Great job Elizabeth and thanks for the inspiration (Smile).

Here is a look at this great sketch

and this is what I came up with,

Here is a look at the inside,

Three colors only, you don't know how much restraint I had to use ! Well maybe you do by now lol.

Coastal Cabana, Basic Black and Whisper White Card Stock and Basic Black Ink was used on the sentiments. Then I added a couple different Wahsi Tapes for the focal image. I also used the Stars Impression Folder on the bottom half of the card for some added texture.
The front sentiment is from the Bravo stamp set and the inside sentiment is from the Really Good Greetings stamp set. I made the triple bow with 1/8" Black Taffeta Ribbon and a large silver brad from a Paper Pumpkin set I have.

This is a very simple sketch that will make for some terrific looking cards. One I will keep handy for those times when I need a great sketch for a fast card.

Hello to all my blogging friends, I hope this post finds you all well and happy!

Wow! What a snow storm we had Thursday! We got about 11 inches. A lot for our neck of the woods that's for sure. Jeff stayed home from work and I helped him shovel our property! We have a long driveway and a big parking area in the back and a very long sidewalk in front of the house. It took us almost three hours non stop to do it properly. Both he and I were sore .

One of our newest design team members Carol Read just became a Grandma this week! We are all very excited for her CONGRATULATIONS Carol! She was so excited and proud to tell us about the newest addition to her family! Wow, how amazing is that!  Welcome to the world Rylen you are so loved!

He is the inspiration for my card is week, beside this Fantastic Sketch Elizabeth K gave us! This was a really fun sketch to work with. It has a great flow to it

Here is Elizabeth's sketch;

this is the card I came up with.

I used, Coastal Cabana, Pistachio Pudding and So Saffron card stock and Coastal Cabana ink to create this card. I just love this little Baby Bumble Bee don't you? It is single stamp called "Baby Bumblebee" lol. It is one of my favorite Baby stamps this year.

Now for a look at the inside;

I used the "Crazy About You" stamp set to create the sentiment. The B is from last years alphabet Bigz Die.

Thanks for the inspiration ladies you did good!

My prayer for Rylen is that he grow up to be an amazing human being! May he have loving  family and friends close to him to help him through all the ups and downs. I hope he is often reminded not to forget to stop and smell the flowers. To laugh often, love deeply and play in the rain. May he have an amazing journey and stay constant when reaching for his dreams.

Create something wonderful this week everyone. If you choose to make a card from this great sketch please let us see it. You can upload it here http://www.sketchfrenzyfriday.blogspot.com/

Hello to all my blogging friends, I hope this post finds you all well and happy!

It's another SFF Sketch Challenge day. Yah! I am always so amazed when a week flies by and here it is again Friday. Wow, how did that happen? Time flies when you are having fun I guess!

As of late my personal life has gotten so busy! It is a good thing because I am not just sitting at home idle any more! I have been out more this winter than the last two winters put together. I guess I'm acclimating to the weather conditions here? I get stir crazy sitting in the house all the time I need to get out even if it is cold.
 However, I'm going to have to start writing things down in a calender just to keep up with everything that is going on! I guess that is a good thing right!


Kim Innis created this weeks sketch and I loved working with it! Thanks Kim for the inspiration! Here is her sketch;

this is what I came up with.

I don't know why but, when I saw the circle part of the sketch, I thought the Woodsman from the Wood You Be Mine stamp set would look fun hanging out of his log cabin window wishing the receiver of this cards a Happy Hello! I just love this little guy don't you? I fussy cut him out and popped him up on dimensionals. I used Marina Mist for his shirt and various SU Markers for the rest of him. Happy Hello is from the Crazy about you Stamp Set. There are lots of fun word combinations you can make up using the single words found in this set. The sentiment is stamped on one of the Essentials Wooden Elements pieces in Mossy Meadow. All these elements coordinate so nicely with all the other woodland elements on this card. 

The Washi Tape was fun to use here too. Because the tape is almost transparent, I often adhere it to a scrap of white card stock first depending on the look I am trying to achieve. This is one of those cases where I wanted the tape to stand out so I used my white card stock trick to do so.

I punched the leaves in Wild Wasabi using the Bird Builder Punch and the Bitty Butterfly was punched out using Tangelo Twist card stock. It is such a great orange color!

Here is a look at the inside;

The inside sentiment is from the Hello Life stamp set! It was stamped in Mossy Meadow. I think it is such a great shade of green it has a very soft look to it!

Thats all there is for me today. I hope you give this weeks sketch a try we would love to see what you create from using it. Here is a link to our blog.  http://www.sketchfrenzyfriday.blogspot.com/.

Hello to all my blogging friends, I hope this post finds you all well and happy!

Wow!  I fell asleep at 8:30 pm last night! I totally forgot to put my post up???
I even woke up a few times but must have been totally out of it I guess? So sorry my friends here our sketch.

This sketch is even mine (silly smile) How could I forget to post that?

This is what I cane up with.

I like that it feels so much like Spring! It is so cheery and fun.
Each butterfly has a different body and matching antlers. I cut a Calypso Coral Pom Pom in half on the first butterfly and then lined up four Bermuda Bay Sequins on the second. The last butterfly had to have a row of elegant pearls on her. Pink and pearls are a go to match up don't you think that it adds a little touch of elegance?
I chose a couple strips of DSP instead of ribbon that element of the sketch. The DSP strips are from the Painted Blooms paper pack that is found in the Occasions Mini. There is also a small flower in the lower right of the card in Blackberry Bliss that I punched from the Itty Bitty Punch Pack it has a cute little round clear Epoxy Sticker on it for some extra interest and texture. those stickers really do come in handy for a little extra interest on a card or any other project.
The sentiment and butterflies are from the Butterfly Basics Stamp Set.

This is a look at the inside.

I kept the two same strips of DSP for consistency on the front and back of the card. Then, just added three matching Bitty Butterflies instead of the larger butterflies that are found on the front so there would be room to write a little note. The card stock and ink colors are Tangerine Tango, Bermuda Bay and Melon Mambo.

I think that about does it for this card. Please give our sketch a try we would love to see what you come up with. Here is our link http://www.sketchfrenzyfriday.blogspot.com/

Have a great week everyone I hope you all get a chance to create something fun!

Wow! What a great weekend we had last week. Our Friends Linda and George (Hi Guys) and Jeff and I went on a Road Trip to Hilton Head Island. We had a great time and a somewhat relaxing time (11 hour drive). The weather was in the 50-60's and perfect. The Island is beautiful. It was my first trip to the  Atlantic Ocean. We drove through North and South Carolina another first. And one of my bucket list items my first Atlantic Ocean Sunrise and  boy was it spectacular As close as I can describe it.. a sunset in reverse only different. I couldn't believe how nice it was to be at the beach again! The smells and sounds reminded me of Calif. We found that we are great travel companions and we will be off again real soon! Southern food is sooo yummy too! Creamed Shrimp Grits is out of this world!!!

We better get on with SFF or this post will end up being a travelogue lol.

Hello to all my blogging friends, I hope this post finds you all well and happy!

It's Sketch Frenzy Friday time and I am so excited about this sketch! I looked at it for several days before I came up with a card I idea I really liked. This weeks sketch was designed by Kim Innis our Fearless leader and boy oh boy it's a tricky one. You gave us a really good challenge Kim! I can't wait to see what the other designers came up with also.

Here is Kim's sketch;

This is what I came up with;

I really like this card! I don't know why but I do. The sketch was tricky with the three lines in it. It's fun when you get a good challenge sketch to create with. So it tickled me that the card turned out so well. I hope you all liked it to!

Supplies used to make this card.

Ink-Mossy Meadow, Real Red and Old Olive.
Paper- Natural White and Early Espresso.
Stamps- Wood You Be Mine, Hello Life and Something to Say.
Embellishments-Wooden Embellishments,Autumn Wooden Accents, Linen Thread and Heart Punch.

Here is a look at the inside;

Hello to all my blogging friends, I hope this post finds you all well and happy!

I just can't shake this cold/cough thing... YUCK! It is so draining.  I'm tired of being sick! I want to feel normal again... What ever that is lol.

Well this week is my turn at creating the sketch. I hope you like the simplicity of it. The other designers really did an outstanding job on it I know you all will be happy to see their work too.

Here is my sketch,

This is what I came up with.

 I just turned the sketch on its side and went with it that way. I received my new SU Order (Ya New Goodies) and immediately thought about using one of the new stamp sets called Hello Life.  There are three sweeping stamps in this set (amongst others really cute ones) that are so pretty. I knew "So Sweet" would work out nicely in the space provided. I chose to use several bright fun colors because I was not going to utilize a lot of the space on this card and thought that would give the card the extra "POP" that was needed. The DSP is from Sweet Taffy it has lots of bright fun colors and patterns in it. I am also enjoying using the In Color Sequin Assortment gotta love me some shinny bling! I added a few Basic Rhinestones too. They both add just the right amount of jazz where needed.

Here is a look at the inside;

The sentiment is from Something To Say.

That's all from me today. Won't you give our sketch a try we would love to see what you come up with post it here  http://www.sketchfrenzyfriday.blogspot.com/

Have a great week!

Hello to all my blogging friends, I hope this post finds you all well and happy!

I bet you are asking where has she been? It's going on well over three weeks since I got this flu/cold/bronchitis thing and I'm just now starting to feel a bit better. This  never ending yuck that is going around is no fun! I really hope you haven't gotten hit with it!

With that said, lets move on to a more happier note! I needed some fun this week how about you?

We have another wonderful SFF challenge for you Elizabeth Harris designed it. I was so excited to show you this sketch and to show you what everyone had created with it. You did a great job Elizabeth!

This is what I came up with.

 I really do like to work with sketches. They give me a starting point and inspiration for my cards. I chose Crumb Cake card stock for my card base. Then added the background with the Decorative Dots Impression Folder.

Wild Wasabi, Early Espresso and Natural White card stock for the matting, star and the banner. I used a scrap of Trim the Tree DSP and a scrap of Burlap Ribbon  for accent pieces, I punched three little stars and added three gold sequin pieces for some bling! The sentiments are from the Petite Pairs stamp set. The larger stars were cut from the Star Framelits set.

As you know I like to decorate the inside of my cards too. I think it makes the card have a more custom look to it.

Well that's it for this week. I hope you give our sketch a try it really is a great sketch to work with. If you do please add it to our blog here http://www.sketchfrenzyfriday.blogspot.com/

Take care of yourselves my friends. Try to stay warm, get plenty of rest and drink lots of fluids (I know it's the mother in me ).

Sketch Frenzy Friday New Years- 1/2/15

Hello to all my blogging friends, I hope this post finds you all well and happy!

I hope you all had a fun and safe New Years! Jeff and I have been sick with the flu since Christmas. Yuck, Yuck, Yuck! So this is going to be a really short post. We didn't have much planned but being down for the count wasn't on our list either! I just can not seem to get rid of this chest congestion and cough.

But, I did manage to get a card made for this weeks sketch challenge. It took me at least 4 hours to make it! Really, my head was a fog mass! The creator of this weeks sketch is Terri Tanks and she did a really great job with it.

Here is Terri's amazing sketch,

and this is what I came up with. Thanks for the inspiration my friend!

I used the Feathers Framelits Die and some Silver Glimmer Paper cut the feathers out with. I also used the Petite Pairs Stamp Set for the sentiments.  The sentiments were mounted on Whisper White and Basic Black card stock using the Scallop Oval and the Large Oval Punches. The DSP strip is from Back to Black. A bit of 1/8th inch Taffeta Ribbon for the little bows.

Now for a look at the inside,

Please join us this week we would love to see what you come up with!

Last Sketch Frenzy Friday Post of the year!

Hello to all my blogging friends, I hope this post finds you all well and happy!

I hope you all had a Wonderful Christmas and Santa was good to you!  Everyone loved the gifts we gave and all were happy! I LOVE Christmas time, but I am very happy all the rushing is over with and we have a nice long weekend to relax.

This weeks sketch was designed by Diana E.  I turned it on the side and added a sentiment to the front but kept all the elements as suggested. Thanks  for a great sketch Diana!

Here it is;

and this is what I came up with;

 I really like the Gold and Silver Foil Specialty Papers Stampin' Up  has. They are easy to work with, die cut great and have an amazing shine to them!

I used the Bright and Beautiful stamp set and the coordinating Star Framelits Dies. I add two strips of Whisper White cs and embossed them with the Polka Dot Impression Folder. The background piece is from the Trim the Tree DSP. There you have it! This was a very easy card to make.

Here is a look at the inside;

All I had to do was Gold Emboss the sentiment and the card was complete all Shiny and Bright just like the sentiment states.

I am excited to see what this New Year will bring? My prayer for us all is to have a Happy, Healthy and Loving New Year. There is still more for me to learn and lot's of new things to share with you. Thanks to all of you who stop in to My Little Patch of Dirt every week. I appreciate your comments and questions.

Sketch Frenzy Friday 12/12/14

Hello to all my blogging friends, I hope this post finds you all well and happy!

Yes! It's Sketch Frenzy Friday time again. This weeks sketch was designed by my dear friend Elizabeth Kratzer. I has so much fun working with her sketch this week! Great job challenging my brain Elizabeth! You did good.

Here is her sketch,

This is what I came up with,

I used a piece of Kraft for the card base. It is so nice and sturdy, I love working with it! A piece of Cherry Cobbler was used for the background color. Three of the focal pieces were matted on Whisper White and the Sentiment piece was matted on Early Espresso. I stamped the sentiment twice once in Cherry Cobbler and a second time in Garden Green. I cut out the Garden Green word "Cheer" and mounted that over the Cherry Cobbler wording for a little extra pop and interest. All the DSP is from the Trim The Tree Paper Stack. I thought a pretty Cherry Cobbler Bow would fill the space nicely. I added a Merry Christmas banner and a Gold Button to the Bow as embellishments.

The three stamp sets I used were from Petite Pairs Wondrous Wreath, and Mingle All The Way. That's all there is for me this week's card.I hope you were inspired and give Elizabeth's sketch a try. I know we all would love to see it!

Here is a look at the inside,

I have been very busy getting ready for the Holidays. My neighbor Priscella and her very cute daughter Tameia (Her middle name is Jeanne' just like my daughters, too cute!) and I had a fun day baking, Noel and I had a couple days Beading. Hi Ladies, I had fun spending the day with you! The yard decorations are 99% done, the inside of the house is 100% done. I just need to dust yuck! I am almost finished baking, tomorrow I plan on finishing frosting the sugar cookies!  The gifts are next. I have lots to do in that department. I guess that is good because, I am still ahead of schedule so I get to enjoy the season and not be stressed out. The weather has been pretty good so far not too cold or wet that has been very nice.

I hope you find some time in your busy schedules to create something fun.
"Tis the season to create!"

Hello to all my blogging friends, I hope this post finds you all well and happy!

Wow!  This week came up on me fast! It's SFF already and I am so excited to show you our sketch for this week. The very talented Karen Gibson created it for us. I really like  that she asked for several layers and embellishments. So you know I had a good time with those challenges lol!

Here is Karen's sketch.

This is what I came up with;

I did some sewing on the plaid piece of DSP on the bottom of the card with Linen Thread,  and I wrapped white Bakers Twine around the white strips of the Garden Green DSP. All of the DSP used on this card are from the Trim the Tree DSP Paper Pack. I really like the texture of Kraft card stock and try to use it when ever I can. It is very heavy card stock and embosses very well.
The double tag embellishment was made with the Decorative Label Punch once in Garden Green and again in Whisper White. I was going to use the Organza Ribbon on it but, I didn't like that it was too wide for what I needed so, I trimmed it down just a bit to the solid white stripe in the center of the ribbon.  I think this width is a much better size for the tag.
I stamped the sentiment twice, once in Mossy Meadow on Kraft cs and then again on Whisper White cs. I then cut out just the word "Cheer" in white and mounted that piece on top of the sentiment to give it some pop! Cherry Cobbler was the additional card stock color I used in making this card.

Here is a look at the inside;

Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you find some time to create something fun too! We would love to see  your card made from this weeks sketch! Please up load it on to our blog here http://www.sketchfrenzyfriday.blogspot.com/.
