hello sunshine



Hello Sunshine!!!

Jen's sfytt this week is FUN...the checkered panel on her sketch is "do something different". When I saw the sketch I knew I wanted to use my Cosmo Cricket Hello Sunshine pad. It has sooo many different patterns and scalloped edges to work with.

The sentiment made me chuckle, I work full time but doing so gives me the {financial} capability to be crafty. I joke that I want to win the lottery so that I could craft all day but that would mean that I'd actually have to buy lottery tickets, which I don't. A girl can dream though, right? The chipboard letters are, yup...thickers AND they are glittery {ooohhh...ahhhh...}. The button is from my Making Memories {note}worthy set and the flower...hmm...kaiser crafts? This puppy is huge...I folded an 8.5 x 11 in half.

Be sure to check out Limelight Papercrafts...Mandy just got in Shimmerz Spritz!!!! This stuff looks fabulous...I'm going to try some out :)

Please be sure to pop over to the 365 Cards blog to see Kristie's Cutting Cafe Card!

Come on back tomorrow...I'll be double posting...one for 365 Cards as part of the Cutting Cafe challenge and my last sketch challenge over at Limelight Papercrafts as the 7th Six Chick-let :)

Love the paper combo that you used. I am never that brave! Love those thickers and the hello sunshine pad...makes me think about some neglected Making Memories papers I should bust out for this sketch....

you work full time too? wow and you can still manage to create such wonderful cards :)

I have the same 'dream' as you... to strike lottery so that I can have the 'financial freedom' to buy art stuff and be crafty all day long!! :P
(fortunately-unfortunately, I don't buy lottery either..haha)
