Things I love...

I managed to squeeze in a bit of crafting time tonight. After work I went to watch the kids bowl. Today was 'beat your coach' day, and with my mom being one of the coaches the kids were out to beat grandma! Of course the coaches had to bowl with their opposite hands, between the legs you name it. Didn't matter to the kids, they were very happy to win. Both of my kids bowled well and achieved their goal of beating grandma. Jaimee bowled her best ever... 296!!! wow! (I bet grandma is jealous! lol!). Anyhow after that we had dinner I did my hour walk and got into the craft room about 8:30.

I found another card challenge blog, one that I won't be able to keep up with however because they have a daily challenge! The other day 365 cards' challenge was a sketch, you all know how much I love sketches, and this one is by Kazan from 2 sketches You so I had to do it!

Here is my card. I wanted to use more of my Little Yellow Bicycle Papers so this is what I came up with. It will be for hubby on our anniversary (I am sure he doesn't check my blog... and if he does he will forget rest assured!) - which is not until August! I think this may even qualify for Rae's Use it Challenge no 1, I used a cricut cartridge that I have had for a long time and not used yet (Fabulous Finds - for the heart) The heart is on foam squares.
