Yankee Belle Stamper

Hey friends... I wanted to pop in to share a card I made for the latest Retro Sketches Challenge #31. I finally pulled out some Lawn Fawn stamps that I've been meaning to ink up but never got around to it. I just adore LF's cute images. Lately I've had the urge to refresh my stash of stamps and went on a little online shopping spree with Simon Says Stamps and Deasy Designs. I am just on pins and needles waiting for my new goodies to arrive. :) Thanks for stopping by, Brandi

Hey friends, I wanted to pop in to share a card I made for the latest Retro Sketches Challenge #27. I went out of my comfort zone a little and used actual rub-ons. I am surprised they applied so smoothly considering they are like 3 years old. LOL! I'm off to catch up on some shows with the hubby. Anyone watch Big Brother? Hugs, Brandi

Hello! I hope everyone is having a great start to the week. We actually had our terrace doors open all day at the office because the weather is so nice out. I was able to start jogging outside this weekend and it was so refreshing seeing the people walking their dogs, kids on skateboards, people on bikes and other walkers. It has been soooooo long! I found this fun site called Retro Sketches.  Arielle, who is the same person over the Colour Q challenges created this site too. For inspiration, every week her and her DT come up with a fun creative sketch based of one of their previous cards. The sketches are so simple and are great as a starting point for inspiration. I used a cute little owl stamp from one of my favorite sets (Happy Owlentine's Day by Jenny Suchin that can be found here ). Well that's it for me today! Have a great night! Brandi
