UDI Sketch Saturday

Welcome back for another round of Utah Diva's Sketch Challenge! If you are on our round robin trip you will be coming here from Leonie's blog. This weeks sketch looked so strange to me...I had no idea what I was going to do until I decided to turn it into a birthday card for my middle son's birthday today. I have to tell you that even though this card is pretty simple (and has a stupid rock mark by the sentiment...ugh!) I really like it and I know Jon will, too! Oh, and yes...I know the golf ball is WAY out of proportion to the golf club...just go with me, k?

I think this card is pretty self explanatory but if you have any questions at all please just let me know.

If you are continuing on our little round robin of blogs then you'll go to Max's blog next. She was wonderful last week and I can't wait to see what she has done this week! If you'd like you can head back to the UDI blog by clicking HERE.

I hope you have a wonderful day! We will have 6 teenage boys at the house playing video games, eating pizza and cake and hopefully having a good time this afternoon...wish me luck!

A Trio Of Cards

Morning everyone! I hope your Tuesday is treating you well! I had a busy but productive Monday...hopefully just like today will be. Just have to point out that I like to switch up my watermark when I'm not using SU! products and I got two new watermarks a couple of weeks ago...the one with the hearts that you saw during Valentine's week and now this fun flower watermark. I like to get my watermarks from HERE. They are so cute and inexpensive...the perfect combination!

So, onto the cards. When I bought this flower set it came with a card kit to make these three basic cards. I changed things up a bit but it was fun creating from a picture and not having to think to make these. The blog that showed the cards originally is HERE. I just love the springy colors and overall ease of these cards. I have to do stuff like this more often!

Well, I'm off to get my day started. I hope you have a wonderful Tuesday!
