Good morning! I'm so excited that I got a little time to play along with this week's Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge (Sketch #30)!
I used Sewing Box Hugs and some We R Memory Keepers patterned paper. For embellishments, I added some buttons, rhinestones, twill, & sewing!
To see this week's sketch, check out the Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge Blog!
Man...I am keeping this short and sweet, huh? LOL!
I hope your weekend is a FABULOUS one! ~Laurie

Christmas in July? Yep, it's true! I have officially gotten my Christmas card making into full swing! YEAH!! Actually, I can't take all of the credit for my early start. :-) It was the Waltzingmouse Sketch #8 (found on the Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge Blog) that sparked the idea for this card!
I started by stamping one of the background images from Pic-Nic Patterns onto the Kraft background layer using white pigment ink. I chose to add this cuuuuuute gingerbread man (from the Oven Fresh Gingerbread Joy set) in the place of the large flower from the sketch (you can see the sketch HERE). For the smaller circles, I added buttons and embossed stars. (The star image as well as the sentiment are also from the Oven Fresh Gingerbread Joy set from Waltzingmouse Stamps.)
Here's a close-up picture so you can see those fun little stars better!
If you want to play along with this fun sketch, you can read all the deets over at the Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge Blog! :-)
Well, that's all from me today! I hope you have a fun and memorable Saturday!
Hugs ~ Laurie
