Details are Sketchy...

It's Friday... it's Friday... I am so glad the weekend is here. I plan to stamp most of the weekend. Now if that really happens I doubt it but that is the plan. First check out the sketch! Flourishes pre-release challenge is a sketch. What does this mean to you? Means if you play along with the sketch and post it over on the FLLC blog here, you are giving yourself a chance to win the ENTIRE release that starts on Monday 10-11. Yes the sneaks will start on Monday. We have 4 sets that we will be showing and you won't want to miss your chance at winning them. Read all about it over on the Flourishes blog!

Now I have two creations for you with the sketch. This first one is a journal that I got for the bizarre and recovered the front. I used the Gerbera Daisies set. Coloring these daisies is always so much fun. I used the copic collections Peony and Meadow. I got some of the yummy fuchsia iridescent ribbon that just looked so good next the daisies. Added a little silver ribbon slider and a beautiful journal now.





For this card I pulled out my Apple of my eye, Life lines and Basket weave. I just love these apples with the basket weave set. This is colored using copic collections Poppy and Evergreen. This wonderful chocolate faux suede ruffle ribbon was a perfect match I thought. I did add a few jewels to the sentiment oval and called it good.

Now check out the wonderful Design Teams work using the sketch:

If you are wondering what the deal is with the new background I had to make a change. A good friend of mine was getting some error message and couldn't access my blog. So we did some changes and well hopefully this will work. Has anyone else had trouble? Let me know please, I am so techy challenged but DH is helping me with all this. :0) Okay enough babbling.... See you back here Monday for Sneak Peeks!!!! Have a great weekend!

"Gawwwlly", as Gomer used to say....these are both gorgeous! Now I'm ready to break in those apples. Well done on your sketches. Love your blog, too. It's time to change mine but it's very intimidating to me. I haven't had any problems getting onto yours, though, old style or new.

Leslie Miller said...

Both so beautiful! You accomplish so much, Stacy, and I'm always wowed by it. Love seeing those pretty flowers when so much these days is Christmas and Fall. I love flowers any time. Your coloring of the apples is fabulous! I haven't had any trouble with your blog, but I had some problems with mine and had to change it. Mine is kind of Plain Jane now. Love your new look!

Oh girl, that journal is drop dead gorgeous! Beautifully done.

And the apples are rich and lovely - very fall feeling.

No problems getting the blog to load lady :)

Oh my gosh you talked me into the basket weave stamp... I LOVE it.. I have been wanting it and now it is a must. It is perfect for that apple set.. I REALLY like the gerber daisies.. What a great notebook. I think I will try one of these for my step mom. She is having a tough time and maybe a scripture journal would be nice.. Great new blog look Stacy...
