Thankful Tuesday- CAS(E) This Sketch #181

Happy Tuesday my crafty peeps…….. I’ve been racking my brains trying to figure out a design or sketch to use for this challenge and I’ve decided to do a double take..
I’m going to use the card I played over on the Tic Tac Toe blog. I think this card fits the bill don’t you. Sentiment in the middle with open space above and below the main area… I just love this card it was a challenge to pull off for sure………… Well I hope you like my take on the sketch…….. See ya later my crafty peeps. I’ll be back in a few days to play over on some other blogs……….

Next up is the new challenge over on the Tic Tac Toe blog my take on the sketch is the top row across embossing, doodling, add dimensional… I added dimension alright can you see I popped the hello up on the card to give it a 3D effect so cool the look but it was a challenge to pull it off. I hope you like my take on the challenge.

I’m also playing over on the Simon Say’s Stamp Wednesday Challenge blog the theme  this week is Create A Scene… I can somewhat do that considering I live in Southern Cal and the beaches are 30 or 40 minutes away we have quite a few. I don’t like  going during the day it’s just too hot, crowds of people early morning is better ………. my birthday is in a few days maybe I’ll spend some time at the ocean…………. just sit, relax and take photo’s I need to do that more considering I took classes to learn how to take better photo’s of my cards for my blog posts………..lol the classes did pay off. I understand how to use my camera. Ok! peeps here you go Let’s have some fun in the Sun! I’m also playing on another new blog challenge Muse... My take on the sketch is critters with a background scene that’s my interpretation of Tracy’s photo… it fit’s right in with the challenge theme over at SSS as well. Hope you like all the excitement I have going on this Sunday afternoon.
