Hi Gang!
Do you guys recall my mentioning a little surprise I had regarding Sketchy Thursdays? Well here it its!!! I'm so excited I feel like I could lift off my chair any moment. The amazing Nancy McKinney did it again! She made me this badge for Sketchy Thursdays. THANK YOU Nancy!!!

I was late in my post yesterday and I am late again with this post. As you know every Friday is a review day over at All That Scraps for the stamps that were released for that month. This past Friday the review was for the two newest Swiss Pixies. Today's card features Leisel and her wheelbarrow. She is available in both rubber and digital download. I also couldn't resist using one of the many fabulous sentiments from AmyR's Thank You sentiments set. The tulips are from the Gingersnaps Spring Thing set released earlier this year.
I just love the way this turned out. It was truly a labor of love I tell you. I think this card goes down in the books of taking the longest to execute. Anything more than an hour and I'm ready for the looney bin. This one was 3x that! Nothing like forcing that old mojo into drive! LOL!
Deets:
Stamps: Swiss Pixies Leisel by C.C. Designs, Thank You sentiments by AmyR, Tulips from Gingersnaps Spring Thing set
Ink: Versafine heat set
Paper: From Prismatics, PTI, patterned paper by Basic Grey's Urban Prairie
Other: Nesties, Cuttlebug dots embossing folder, sewing machine, Copics, dimensionals, sheer ribbon from A Muse, Stickles and gemstones from Kaiser Kraft.
Anywho, I hope you like today's post. It's in honor of YOU, my faithful blog followers. All 3 of you! ROFLOL! Just kidding. But seriously thank you for taking time out of your day to stop by. I really appreciate YOU!
Take care,
