I can't believe it is already Friday and time for another new release and challenge over at A Day for Daisies.

This weeks new release is called "It's a Child's World" and the challenge is "Use your noodle and add a doodle". Doesn't that just make you smile when you read it?

I used the image "Dolls ~ Margaret Evans Price style". As soon as I saw the image I knew that I wanted to paper piece all of them using the Simple Stories "generations" 6x6 paper pad and the sketch over at Skipping Stones Designs.

Here is a look at all of this weeks new releases.

Don't forget to stop over at the ADFD blog and check out all of the Design Teams creations.

Thanks for stopping by to look. Have a great weekend.

celebrate today

Yesterday would have been my Dad's 84th birthday and this coming Saturday is my Mother-in-laws 84th birthday (don't tell her I told you) so I had to make her a card.

I recently picked up some of the 6x6 pads by Simple Stories and I used the "generations" collection for my card along with some Maya Road rose ribbon.

I used the Card Patterns Sketch 136 for my inspiration. Such a fun sketch to use and you could just use scraps that you have laying around for this one. 

Thanks for stopping by to look. I will be back tomorrow with either a card or a layout.

Enjoy your day!

sketchy thursday

I am really loving the sketches the past few weeks over at Sketchy Thursday and when I saw this weeks sketch I knew I had to play along.

I picked up some school papers at Archivers this past Monday when they had all 12x12 pattern paper, and all paper pads at 43% off. And they were perfect for these school pictures of Cassie that I had sitting on my craft table.

I even pulled out my sewing machine and did some stitching on this layout. Can you find it on here? I did it in two different spots.

Here is the sketch that inspired my layout.

Thanks for stopping by to look. I will be back tomorrow with a card to share.

Enjoy!
