KEEPING BUSY

It has been really cold the last few days.  I have been trying to keep busy doing a bit of art and as the library was closed for the last few days I have a few things here to share with you.

The first is a layout.  I started off with sketch #34 over at The Memory Nest, and the Tic Tac Toe board from Soul Scrappers TTT2.

Here's the sketch -

 

and the Tic Tac Toe board -



I decided to use the first row vertical.  My photos are from Christmas and the ribbon is actually woven through a sticker.  There are a few other stickers as well.

and a few close-ups -

 

 

 

I am also entering this in Cheryl's Anything Goes February challenge at sketches4all. 

Next up is a card -

I used the sketch for the Feeling Sketchy DT call.  I think that is a great site and I am planning to apply, so you will probably see more with this sketch coming soon.

My card -

 

I wish the vintage Santa image had shown up better. 

It really is cute. 

It reads 'Best Wishes for Christmas'.

 

Christmas supplies are still out on my desk and crafting area so my head is still in Christmas!

 

My next card uses sketch #385 from Mojo Monday.

 

 and my card -

Don't you just love that little penguin? 

 

I am also going to enter that card in Stacy H-W February 2015 Card Challenge over at Sketches4all.



I hope you have enjoyed these 3 creations and I plan to have more to share with you tomorrow or Friday.  Thanks so much for stopping by.  All comments are truly appreciated.
