Whoomp, there it is.

Good Monday afternoon to you all. I hope everyone had a nice weekend. We went to the movies on Friday and played Monopoly on Saturday. Pretty lame by some standards, but that's me: LAME-O :)

Let's get down to business: The lovely ladies over at Get Sketchy are up with a new challenge.

The bonus challenge this week is to make your own embellishment -- got it!!

GS #5:



I went out of my comfort zone and went wild and crazy with this card. Does it make sense at all?? Not sure it would even fit in an envelope :S I don't know if I kind of like this card or if I kind of hate it :S

My own embellishment (used my Cricut and Cuttlebug) - complete with a gem face and wire feelers (is that what they are called??):


Card Ingredients: Bazzill and K&Co paper; K&Co border punches and wires; me and my BIG ideas gems; Butterfly font; recycled ribbon and silk leaves.

2RedBananas is up with Banana Split Sunday. Here is their sketch this week:

And mine:



A bow AND a button - this can't be!! :D



I tried to give the basket a stitched feel - wasn't quite what I wanted.

Card Ingredients: Recollections cardstock, Autumn paper, and embellishment; hemp twine.

Happy Monday!!!
