{ 2 Sketches 4 You - Kazan's sketch 20, CPS 103, Project 365 - Week 7 }

Last week was really crazy for me and this one didn't start any better, but it's only Tuesday. I can't wait for my husband to come back home this Friday. A really quick post while Alex is taking a nap.

This first card is for Kazan's sketch 20. I flipped it. You know how sometimes you start with something in mind, but it doesn't turn out the way you imagined it. Well, this is what happened here. I love this American Crafts paper, didn't know I had it. Using my stash again. I think I received it as a prize. The green patterned paper is by Making Memories, Jenni Bowling bird journaling note, Making Memories flower, and American Crafts rub-on.

The second card is for CPS 103. I started with a journaling note that I made myself. Then, I just followed the sketch and the colors of the stamped journaling note. Basic Grey Urban Prairie was a perfect match. That beautiful ribbon is from Michael's dollar bin. They have all the Spring stuff out. I will have to go back and get some more. It's American Crafts ribbon, and it comes in all different colors. Bird house and sentiment stamps are by Hampton Art and the butterfly is Impression Obsession stamp. I used my watercolor pencils to color both images.

Project 365 - Week 7

2.9 - Alex posing on the stairs before his Dr. appointment. 2.10 - he figured out how to step into the box all by himself. 2.11 - he mastered climbing on the stool and sitting on it, with the remote, of course. 2.12 - trip to the store...I loved all the decorations when we first walked in. 2.13 - I made cookies for Valentine's Day. 2.14 - heart shaped waffle for Alex on Valentine's Day. 2.15 - Alex after his nap.

  5. You cards are so beautiful today, Daniela, as always. I love the bird on your 2sketches card. And your stamping and handmade journaling spot on your CPS card are fabulous.
    And I just have to say that Alex is the MOST adorable little guy! That just cracked me up that he had to climb up on that stool with the remote. What a dude he is!
