STILL FEELING A LITTLE BIT LIKE CHRISTMAS - and POPCORN!

Don't know why but I must still have some holiday spirit left.  I have created 2 more Christmas cards for you.  The first is using sketch #115 from Feeling Sketchy!

 
I decided to turn the sketch on it's side for my card.
 


I created another card as well...I thought it was for a challenge over on Turtle Soup. Looking at the challenge sample I'm not so sure...

But, for your viewing pleasure here it is -

 
When I arrived here at the library yesterday to create my post it was snowing like crazy and they closed early so I never got my post up.  Last night I was able to create a layout so I have something else to share with you as well.
 
My layout uses sketch #229 from Lasting Memories Layout Challenges.  Not only did you have to use the sketch but your layout had to have something to do with food.  I chose these fun photos from the Robin's Nest crop I went to last September in Ohio.  The crop was held in a barn and it was truly a blast!  (Robin is hosting another crop in April at a hotel in the Amish country of Ohio - I can't wait to go!)
 
Here's the sketch -
 
 
And here is my layout!  I was lucky enough to have a seat right next to the popcorn maker too!
 
 
I wish the photo was more clear.  I of course didn't realize that until getting up here and viewing it on the computer.  On the phone it is so tiny that it looked just fine.  My time here at the library will be coming to a close shortly so I am going to hunt up a few more challenges so I can work on them tonight! 
 
Hope that you have enjoyed my share for today!
