Remember When We...

The sketch this week from Get Sketchy:

This week we are sponsored by Bo Bunny!  How can you not want to play along!  Hop on over to Get Sketchy to see what the rest of the design team did and play along with us!

Now this sketch really had me stumped.  I attempted it a couple of times but with no luck.  Then the other night it just came out like this and I was happy with it!  The main panel is on foam squares as is one mushroom.  I just did a bit of coloring with my copics in the images.  The Pattern paper and chipboard are Cosmo Cricket and the stamps are from Unity.  I love how the word friend is hidden in the tree.  Perhaps when I use the card, I will check one or all boxes!  I would love to send this to a friend how I was inseparable from as kids but never really see anymore.
 
 I made another card while I had the Kraft out.  This one is for the Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger:

 
For this card I used the Unity set called The Artist In You. It is also for the Just Buggin Challenge - to stamp on a Cricut cut out.

 


Now if you are here for the Friends with Flair or just happened upon my blog, to see the rest of the participants you need to start at Angela's blog.  Remember one person has a hidden blinkie and if you are the chosen commenter you win 25 free stamps.

Jeanne said...

I simply don't know how you do it, Laurel! How do you come up with such wonderful cards so consistently? You are amazing. I like your first card a lot, but that second one, well, it blew me away!

Alanna said...

Both cards are wonderful Laurel and I second Jeanne's thoughts. You always have the best cards, and so many of them.
