Good morning stampy friends! I hope you are all enjoying this wonderful weekend. Life feels like it's getting back to normal now that school is back in full swing. I think I need the routine more than anyone else in the house! What can I say, I'm a creature of habit. Today is no exception. Many of you know how much I love sketches. Karen's are a definite GO - TO for me as they are so fresh and fun. I can always count on them to get my mojo going.
Just look at her new one. Don't you just love the penant in the corner?! I do!!
It's always good to have a good stash of birthday cards around. And since I happened to have my new Corner Banner die from All That Scraps still on my desk, I decided to use it again for today's card. Don't you just love the layered affect you get with it? This cutie is one of the new Pure Innocence images from MFT called Birthday Girl. I paper pieced her dress using some left over scraps from my banner. All patterned paper is from Echo Park's Sweet Day. Perfect for this sweet birthday girl.
Be sure to stop by and check out what the rest of the Sweet Sunday Sketch Crew created using Karen's fabby sketch!
