Sketch Frenzy Friday 12/21/12

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

Wow! It sure has been a long time since I created something fun for Sketch Frenzy Friday and it feels really good! Hi Ladies, I am back and ready to stamp!

Looks like a few changes have been made to the format since I made our move across the US. As you probably know already he he! (I'm the one who has been away right!)  Looks like we are no longer putting on a mini blog hop but, we are only posting our cards on the main web page and our own blogs now.

I am so happy to have gotten my fingers inky I can't even tell ya! I even showed Jeff my hands, he laughed and knew we were finally settled in and I was getting back into the swing of things again.

This weeks sketch was designed by Robbie Rubula.

What do you think of this one? Fun right!.

While we were making our trip across the United Stated we got the opportunity to stop off at my BFF's  house in Missouri (Hey girl). Carey and I had so much fun creating in her Stamping Tree House. I showed you that Ornament we made on Tuesday's Post. While there, Carey so generously split a pack of the SU Merry Moments Simply Scrappin` kit with me. I love my BFF so much.
I decided to put the kit to good use on this card! I used a strip of one of the beautiful border pieces that kit contains. I cut it into two strips and attached the strips to black and red scratch pieces of card stock.
The images are from the Tags til Christmas set. I used 2 punches to out line the images; Extra Large Tag and the Scallop Square. Then I cut a 1 1/2" circle from the Circles #2 Die. For the background texture I chose the Petals-a-Plenty Embossing Folder.

I had so much fun making this card. I hope you like it my friends. It feels so good to be back and to be stamping again. You were all missed. I hope you enjoy this card and get some inspiration from it. You can still post your cards for us to see here http://www.sketchfrenzyfriday.blogspot.com

Hope you drop by again real soon and have time to create something fun.
Chat soon,
