I took Lesley's wonderful sketch this week and made it slightly askew. That's how my life has been lately - just a bit askew. I had a run-in with a chair leg and lost. Nice clean break but slightly askew said the physician's assistant as she checked the x-ray of that swollen pinky toe - and she referred me onward. Yep it's broken but slightly askew said the orthopedic assistant and sent me home with a roll of tape to tape my toes together and suggested a foot doctor. Oh most definitely askew said the foot doctor who fashioned a splint out of foam and wrapping stuff - and sent me home with more foam and wrapping stuff to keep it splinted for another 4 weeks. I haven't been able to wear shoes in over a month now and wearing flip flops in upstate NY during February and March is not easy! I am sure people have looked at me and thought hmmmmm........she's slightly askew........
Hope you join us at
Freshly Made Sketches!
I am enjoying a new box of Stampin' Up! goodies that arrived this week! The sketch from Create with Connie and Mary was perfect to showcase some of the new arrivals. The Summer Smooches DSP and flowers from Bright Blossoms provide a sneak peek of things to come in the new SU! catalog this June. Hope you enjoy the sneak peek too!
I loved Lesley's graphic design this week at Freshly Made Sketches and I love polka dots! When I introduced those dots to that design, they were instant friends! Calypso Coral, Early Espresso and Pear Pizzazz get along pretty well too! Nothing better than good friends..........
This baby shower invitation was designed to match the decor of the new arrival's nursery. It's a Winnie the Pooh theme so Pooh floating along with his balloons was the perfect image for the invite. Pooh looks right at home with Nursery Nest DSP, thin taffeta ribbon and sweet little buttons. The pocket style card worked perfectly to tuck in the invite and registry cards. I found the pocket design here on Ann Clemmer's blog and changed it up using a baby theme. And since the invite is CAS with buttons it also works perfectly for this week's Paper Player's challenge!
