Finally!

Gosh I have been so crazy busy creating cards for my DT work, I haven't been able to get my fix with challenges!

I got a new Hero Arts stamp, Tiny Flags and have been wanting to use it.  Today I found the perfect 2 challenges!  A Blog Named Hero #50; ombre, a new to me challenge, Friday Mashup 174, bokeh, and also, Paper Crafting Challenge 17; sequins. My sentiment is from Avery Elle, Brushed.

You all know me, one card simply is not enough!  I went on to play in Freshly Made Sketches 150, and CASology 109; java. [coffee? I am so there!]

I used my favorite coffee set, There She Goes, Let's Get Together, along with another new [to me] fun set, MFT, Say What.  (Sorry guys no linking available since both these sets are no longer available)

I had a super morning -- thanks all for the great challenges!! :)


Thanks for stopping by~

Lovely, rich colors on those triangles! And your coffee and "let's chat" is a wonderful use of the sketch. Thank you for playing along with Freshly Made Sketches.
